Rich Berry
Founder, CEO
In 2014, Rich co-founded 425 Consulting Group to bring large enterprise experience in business processes, systems, and business intelligence to small and medium-sized organizations. He is a multidimensional professional with extensive experience in accounting, financial management reporting, and corporate accounting systems. Coupling his ability to understand a broad view of the corporate landscape with a deep focus on specifics allows him to translate complex concepts into clear and actionable insights to transform the organizations his team works with.
Before starting 425 Consulting, he leveraged the accounting experience he gained from the CPA firm Moss Adams to become the Group Finance Manager at Microsoft. With a team of 25+ employees and vendors, he provided solution delivery for finance applications including Microsoft’s implementation of SAP, management reporting and business intelligence, corporate accounting operations, and user support for the global finance organization. He is proud to know that the systems, processes, and reporting work he originally designed, developed, managed, and maintained continue to be the framework of Microsoft’s operations today.
He earned his accounting degree at the University of Washington.
Outside of work, Rich enjoys spending time with his wife Amy, twins Richie and Jilian, their two dogs, and a sun conure. You can find him relaxing on the golf course or at a local craft brewery with friends. On rainy days, he unwinds with a movie or historical fiction book.

Spencer Kriz

Spencer Kriz is a Functional Consultant at 425 Consulting where he leverages his Microsoft certification and course management expertise to design, implement, and support Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central solutions. Additionally, he is responsible for developing training videos that support our client’s ongoing success.
Before joining 425 Consulting, he served in the US Navy as a Machinist Mate for 9 years. His responsibilities established a strong background in mechanical engineering, technical troubleshooting, project management, training, and teamwork. He attributes his strategic thinking and ability to solve complex issues directly to his roles overseeing sailors, quality control, and inventory management. Additionally, he acted as a course supervisor where he developed a passion for teaching others and developing training materials, which he is now applying at 425 Consulting Group.
Outside of work, he and his wife volunteer with the Chasing Sunshine Dog Rescue where they foster and advocate for adopting rescue dogs. His father inspired him to be a man of action and actively seek answers whenever faced with a challenge. His guidance imparted a valuable lesson: it's okay not to have all the answers. The key lies in knowing where to find and actively pursue them.
