LEADERSHIP TEAM - Our Coaches

Gary Artis
Chairman of the Board

If you’ve ever had the chance to meet our Chairman of the Board, Gary, you know that there are three things he’s passionate about, his work, his cars and his family. Since the beginning of time (or 1989 when InterDyn Artis was founded), Gary has always been an adventurous, honest and driven leader and will never miss a chance to brag about our people, work and expertise. Not only does he find pride in zooming through the world of technology, he’s also happiest when driving around in an old car feeling younger than he actually is. So buckle up, because Gary is ready for another 30+ years of success!

Kurt Voorhies
Chief Executive Officer

Kurt Voorhies
Chief Executive Office

Disciplined, focused, and maybe a little obsessive at times (in the best way possible), Kurt is a fearless leader with a very rational mindset who always has a purpose behind everything he does. As CEO, Kurt has been instrumental in the success of our company over the last 30+ years and is a key component to our culture. Early to bed, and early to rise, Kurt is up by 4:30 am each day ready to work out and organize his day. Maybe his devotion is why people love him so much, but we also like to think it has something to do with his ability to relate to every employee, and his value of work-life balance. While his competitive triathlon years are well behind him now, he still enjoys incorporating the training aspect into his daily fitness routine which includes cycling, running, and strength training.

Chelsea Schlepp
Director of Sales & Marketing

Chelsea is our Director of Sales and Marketing and is in charge of our quarterbacks, our fearless sales team and creative marketing bunch. Even though you may find her participating in a workout boot camp (sometimes twice a day), she adds a whole lot of fun to the drills she runs at the office. When she’s not strategizing with her team at work, you can find her spending time with her kids and husband, doing the NY Times crossword puzzle, playing board games or trying to escape from a room that she’s been randomly locked in. Yep, she is an avid “Escape Room” goer and expert, may we add. We sometimes ask ourselves, what can’t she do?!

Matt Pfountz
Director of Services

Matt is our Director of Services, aka our curious technology geek, and he is always ready for the next great thing in the Microsoft Dynamics world. He shows up to work with excitement day in and day out, loves any opportunity to learn something new and meets any challenge head on, even if it’s fixing something that one of us broke (oops). His logical approach to everything he does makes him a great leader, as well as the perfect guy to brainstorm ideas with. Matt lives an energetic life outside of work as well as he gets A LOT of steps in on a daily basis, walking around 6 miles a day, and enjoys kayaking and spending time on the water. He also enjoys playing basketball (even though he says he’s not the best at it), ultimate frisbee, and playing with his kids.

SALES & MARKETING TEAM - Our Quarterbacks

Jonathan Crowell
Senior Account Executive

Jonathan Crowell
Senior Account Executive

Senior Account Executive by day, avid bike rider and UNC athletics fanatic by night, Jonathan is one of the key members of our sales team. Jonathan may have studied film in college, but he’s a natural at finding the right solution for his clients. His knowledge of our products is out of this world and he’s always eager to help, even if you’re a Duke fan. Not only is Jonathan competitive, hardworking and silly, he’s also the “drop off at and pick up from school dad”, so yes, he’s a pretty well-rounded guy and we know you’ll find him a pleasure to work with.

Bailey Upchurch
Marketing Manager

Bailey is our Marketing Manager and her creative instincts and organization make our marketing department flourish. In charge of all daily marketing tasks, she is passionate about what she does and is always looking for the next creative way to benefit clients and customers alike. Other ways to describe Bailey include punctuality follower, HGTV devotee, chips and salsa connoisseur and lover of sunshine and iced coffee. When she takes any vacation days, it’s probably because she’s traveling the country one baseball field at a time with her husband, a pitcher for the Texas Rangers (go #54!).

Tammy Emory
Account Executive

Tammy Emory
Account Executive

Tammy is one of our key players and serves as an Account Executive. She describes herself as vertically challenged, but working with her is most definitely not a challenge. She’s the sweet team member who greets everyone with the happiest “good morning” (even on a Monday), and customers can instantly feel her sincerity, even over the phone! She’s got a sweet tooth to go along with her personality and she loves to bake, which is a win win for the whole team! Her de-stressor? Having a daily party for one where she dances like nobody’s watching to her favorite playlist in the bathroom. We haven’t seen her break out her moves at the office yet, but we can’t wait for the day it happens.

Ashley Kennally
Client Strategy Manager

Positive, bubbly and smart are all words the describe Ashley, one of our Client Strategy Managers. Although she likes doing puzzles, we are never puzzled as to why clients love her so much. She’s compassionate about her job and strives to make sure each and every client has everything they need to succeed. Fun fact – Ashley has a sweet, potato shaped, ball of love named Gus, her English Bulldog. Much like Ashley, Gus is full of personality and keeps you laughing… like mother like son! Another fun fact – food is her love language, so if you ever need a lunch buddy, Ashley is always down!

Lise' Cummings
Client Strategy Manager

Lise' Cummings
Client Strategy Manager

Lise’ (pronounced leez-uh) is one of our Client Strategy Managers and a fan favorite. Why do clients love her? Her spunky personality and optimistic outlook on every aspect of life, that’s why. Not only does she manage clients and their success on a daily basis with such grace, she’s also a MOMager. As a busy mom of two boys, she spends lots of time at the baseball field, cross country meets and golf tournaments, and she prides herself on being her boys' biggest fan! Additionally, she enjoys singing, music, gardening, decorating and cooking, she even makes and sells homemade salsa. Can you say yum?!

CONSULTING TEAM - Our Starting Lineup

Shawn Dorward
Practice Lead | Microsoft MVP

Shawn Dorward
Practice Lead | Microsoft MVP

With over 20 years of experience in working with and using Microsoft Dynamics solutions, Shawn, our Practice Lead, is definitely no rookie and the expertise he brings to the table on a daily basis is unbeatable. He has an abundance of knowledge and ranks with the best of the best, holding the title of GPUG All-Star and Microsoft MVP. You may recognize Shawn from his many speaking engagements within the Dynamics Community, and if you have seen one of his presentations, then you already know he’s one of the best (and most fun) presenters out there. He may be able to recite every episode of The Office word for word, but that’s just because when he enjoys something, he’s all in, and this technology-loving, sometimes geeky, upbeat guy is most definitely always all in for our clients. His hobbies outside of the working world even include technology as he enjoys flying drones with his family. We’re not saying he’s crashed a few in his time, but we’re not saying he hasn’t not crashed a few in his time either, if you know what we mean. #MoveForwardWithDorward and take your technology to the next level!

Debbie Overby
Implementation Consultant

Debbie is one of our Implementation Consultants and you can hardly ever find her without a smile on her face! In addition to her nurturing and pleasant personality, Debbie’s knowledge of the Microsoft Dynamics world is nothing short of impressive. If you get the pleasure of working with Debbie during your implementation, you’ll see she is always eager to help and thoroughly enjoys what she does. Debbie enjoys mixing different flowers together to get a unique look in her spare time, so if you ever need a pretty floral arrangement, she’s your woman!

Paul Haag
Sr. Developer / Emerging Tech

Paul Haag
Senior Manager / Emerging Technologies

Our Senior Developer and Emerging Technologies guru, Paul, is one of those guys that seems to know everything about everything. Extremely smart, curious and conscientious, Paul is the brains behind many of our successes and always keeps us informed on “what’s next” in the technology world. He also has a comedic side to him and is most definitely a guy you’d want on your trivia team. Not only is he our ULTIMATE tech guy, he also plays a mean game of ULTIMATE Frisbee, which he started playing with coworkers back in 2006. There is nothing average about the work that Paul does, but outside of work he’s a pretty average guy who likes riding bikes, walking his dogs and spending time with his wife and son.

Heather Maneiro
Implementation Consultant

Heather is one of our Implementation Consultants and has held numerous roles in the Microsoft Dynamics world since 1999, making her one of our most experienced team members. With a Master’s Degree in Library and Information Science and also experience as a college Professor, Heather’s intelligence is impressive, to say the least. As our resident librarian, you can count on Heather to research your GP or Business Central implementation thoroughly because as you can see, she is always surrounded by books and information and knows how to spot the “fake news”. When she’s not PROFESSING her love for the Dynamics products (see what we did there?), you can find her RV’ing around the country, visiting MLB parks with her husband along the way.

Tyler Boswell
Technical Consultant

Tyler, our Technical Consultant, is highly knowledgeable about the Microsoft Dynamics applications and assists users and clients with things such as troubleshooting, upgrades and more. While Tyler is a laid-back guy, he’s always up for a good social event at the office and brings a bit of humor to every situation (at least he thinks so). Outside of work, Tyler enjoys an occasional whiskey tasting and also spends numerous hours a week playing with his dogs. So, whether Tyler is sipping on his favorite whiskey or in the office hard at work, he’s a pretty NEAT and STRAIGHT UP guy (whiskey pun, in case you didn’t get it).

Anne Diaz
Project Manager

Between her 20+ years of experience with Microsoft Dynamics and juggling a million activities at once with her four children, Anne sure does know how to manage, which is good, considering she is a Project Manager. We say the “A” in Anne stands for “A-Game”, because she is always on her A-Game making sure the scope and direction of each project is on schedule and good to go. If you have the chance to work with Anne, you’ll get a glimpse of her considerate, witty personality, which are two of the qualities that make her such a good team member.

Jessica Jarvis
Implementation Consultant

Meet Jessica, one of our Implementation Consultants who describes her personality as ambitious, perceptive and talented - we couldn’t agree more. Her day-to-day demeanor is very tender, but her work and expertise speaks volumes, making her a client favorite to work with. Outside of work, Jessica can be found relaxing at home or hanging out with Bear, the Great Dane she rescued. Bear may be larger than a small human, but Jessica has worked very hard with Bear on his manners, obedience, and making sure he feels loved, and he is the sweetest pup of them all.

Allen Kamp
Support Coordinator

A reliable support system is a key component of success in all areas of life, including with your software solution. That is why our Support Coordinator is the best of the best – Mr. Allen Kamp. Loyal, calm and humble, Allen is the type of guy that will always put our client’s needs first, and we mean that. Allen has been with us since 2011 and ever since then our client base has never been happier. Outside of work, you can find Allen playing the guitar and spending time with his wife and three children. Allen also enjoys watching sports, so don't be surprised if he can one up you on his sports knowledge!

Margaret Bolding
Project Manager

You know those people who lead busy lives, but seem to have it all together and will still drop what they’re doing in the blink of an eye to help others? That’s Margaret, one of our Project Managers. From the day-to-day details of coordinating with customers, the sales team and consultants to make sure the scope and direction of each project is executed effectively, to keeping her three daughters on top of all of their activities and spending time with her husband, Margaret does it all! She even has her Project Management Professional (PMP) certification, so you know she’s the real deal. Work isn’t the only place where Margaret runs things efficiently, she also enjoys physically running. Half marathons are her favorite distance, and she’s pretty good at those, too, with medals to prove it!

Logan Bost
Implementation Consultant

Logan is a nature-loving, hands-on guy and thoroughly enjoys fishing in the rivers of the NC Mountains and woodworking in his shop. Don’t let his easy-going personality fool you though, he’s also very persistent and intuitive, making him a great Implementation Consultant. Dedicated to his work, Logan drives an hour and a half to the office in the wee hours of the morning and still shows up with a smile on his face no matter what. How does he decompress after a full day’s work? More driving! No, really… Logan enjoys taking long drives through the mountains and exploring places he’s never been. Logan has a lot of drive (literally), and we’d say we found a great catch!

Eric Suggs
Application Developer

With over 20 years of experience in working with Microsoft Dynamics products, Eric is our valued Application Developer, or as he likes to call himself, Master of the Universe… but we’ll let you decide. Super smart and witty, Eric’s capabilities and funny remarks will leave you in amazement. Not only is he spot on during his working hours, he’s also a pretty good shot after hours as him and his wife participate in a pool league. Don’t be surprised if you see (or hear) Eric in another country either, as he has traveled to some pretty impressive places including Africa, Italy, Alaska and Scotland, to name a few.

OPERATIONS TEAM - Our Scorekeepers

Andrea Allen
Controller

Andrea Allen
Controller

One sentence that describes Andrea best… Life is better at the beach (when she’s not a work, obviously). As a Florida native, Andrea loves most things about the sunshine state including the University of Florida (go Gators!), her parents, and well… sunshine! At work, she’s the one holding everyone ACCOUNTable, as our loyal Controller. It’s an ACCRUAL world out there, but with her adaptable and tenacious nature, Andrea runs the books keeps things BALANCED. Everyone could use an Andrea in the office, and we're lucky to have her!

Elizabeth Spector
HR/Payroll Specialist

Our easy-going, optimistic and most of the time caffeinated Human Resources and Payroll Specialist, Elizabeth, is one of our favorite team members (for many more reasons other than she's the one who makes sure everyone gets their paychecks). Elizabeth is always pleasant to be around and she is a true team player who is always willing to help. When she’s not making sure this fun bunch knows all of the updated policies or isn’t running payroll, you can find her her reading up on where to go next for vacation, walking an average of three miles a day or shuttling her son to and from all of his extracurricular actives. We hit the jackpot with Elizabeth!
