Brillect goes beyond traditional staffing services. We provide exceptional talent + expert strategy to help our clients and consultants succeed.
About Brillect
As finance and accounting professionals with decades of experience between us, we bring a unique “we’ve been in your shoes” perspective with a deep background in both the corporate and consulting world. That’s precisely why we go beyond traditional placement services to provide a combination of exceptional talent + expert strategy to help our clients and consultants succeed.
We created Brillect with one goal in mind – to help you do more. For our clients, that may mean placing a technical expert to help navigate a complex, high-stakes project or adding short-term bench strength to a team that needs deep subject matter expertise. For our consultants, that means offering flexible and rewarding career opportunities that allow them to do more of the work they love in a way that fits their life and career goals.

Co-founder
Erica
Erica’s motivation is rooted in helping people. Passionate about connecting brilliant talent to fulfilling work, she wants to shape the careers of Brillect’s talented consultants and enable them to
create the work and home lives they prefer. All while helping her clients attain objectives to grow their businesses and enhance their teams by connecting them to the right professionals.
Erica has a Bachelor’s degree in Accounting from Minnesota State University Moorhead and is a CPA. She spent nearly 15 years in the accounting and finance industry, starting with a career in audit at PricewaterhouseCoopers. Moving on from public accounting, she worked in external and internal financial reporting at Target Corporation and Lawson Software, as well as general ledger accounting at Best Buy. An additional six years of providing consulting services leads us to her current role as co-founder of Brillect, an endeavor she is thrilled to be undertaking.
Outside of work, Erica and her husband have three young kids that bring so much joy (and crazy) to their lives! They enjoy boating at the lake, volunteering at church and watching their kids in sports.

Co-founder
Kelly
Kelly loves getting to know people, hearing what brings them joy, learning what motivates them and helping them succeed – at work and at home. She believes work should be energizing, challenging and a community you can’t wait to join every day. Her purpose is to connect people to help them accomplish more. From helping her clients solve complex problems to working with consultants to find the focus they need to propel their careers while finding balance at home, Kelly is committed to helping others be their best in every chapter of their careers.
A hockey mom to 3 boys, a wife, dog lover, and a runner, Kelly has a Bachelor’s degree in Accounting from the University of Wisconsin, Madison. She started her career in public accounting at
Arthur Andersen. She spent many years in compliance, project management and audit roles before making the leap to providing consulting and staffing services. After her most recent position at Microsoft, she co-founded Brillect to create a place where you can do more of what you love – at work and at home.

Co-founder
Kristine
While her daughters were young, Kristine struggled with the desire to “do it all”. She wanted a great career AND to be a great mom and wife. She believed there was a better way to work but failed to find it in traditional workplaces. She co-founded Brillect in part to be that connection between finance and accounting leaders and high-performing professionals who desire more flexibility than traditional employment provides.
Kristine earned her BSB in Accounting and MBA (Finance emphasis) from the Carlson School of Management, currently serves on the Alumni Board of the Carlson School of Management, and is also a CPA (inactive). She began her career in audit at Arthur Andersen and Deloitte and spent 18 years in Accounting, FP&A, and Treasury at Target Corporation.
Married to Jeff and a mom to Anna and Maren, she loves travel, spending time with her family, all types of skiing and time at the lake.
We are so excited to bring a fresh approach to connecting high-performing accounting, finance and project management talent with fulfilling work. We formed enduring friendships working together at multiple companies, and ultimately, realized our shared passion for helping people enjoy challenging careers that allow them to do more of what they love at work and at home. We thrive as problem solvers, partnership forgers and opportunity creators, and we love helping our clients and consultants succeed.

Our people are what truly set us apart. We have a best-in-the-business team that keeps our office running like clockwork, creating a seamless experience for our clients and consultants. Meet the faces behind Brillect.
