Amy Grams started her career at PricewaterhouseCoopers in San Francisco, where she worked with a wide variety of both private and public clients in the technology, manufacturing and services industries. In 1996 she jumped at an opportunity to work at one of her clients, Hewlett Packard. There she spent her first three years managing the Planning & Reporting department of one of the largest divisions in HP, until the division was spun-off with many others into what became Agilent Technologies (and is now Keysight Technologies today).
At Agilent, Amy quickly progressed from Division Controller of the Signal Analysis Division, an R&D and manufacturing organization, to a senior management position as Global Field Controller for the $2.5B Electronic Products & Solutions Group. Reporting to the Global VP of Sales, Amy provided oversight for a $350M annual cost structure, a challenging position she began just as the tech bust occurred in 2001. During her tenure she provided leadership and financial guidance throughout multiple restructuring programs.
In 2002, Amy became the Operations Manager for the Wireless Business Unit, where she worked directly with the Business Unit VP to translate higher-level business objectives and strategies into measurable operational plans.
She left Agilent in 2006 to be a stay-at-home mom, where she also kept busy running a side business as a nutrition coach. She resumed her accounting career in 2016 when she joined Somersault Snack Company of Sausalito, CA as a senior accountant/analyst. There she managed most of the company’s day-to-day accounting and worked with the sales organization to analyze sales and help prioritize the company’s in-store trade spending and merchandising investments.
When Somersault was sold, she moved on to become Controller at Coast Landscape Management in Napa, before joining Altus Equity in late 2017.
