Before beginning her financial services practice, Sallie spent 20 years with IBM in NYC and Houston as a marketing representative, system engineer, and project manager.

In 2012, Sallie was awarded the PFS certification, given only to CPAs, by the American Institute of CPAs. She passed the CFP exam on her first attempt in 2011 and attained CFP certification in 2012.
