About the author

Bonnie is a zealous organizer of everything from software demos to gourmet meals with the occasional vacation to test the waters of spontaneity. Ironically, fate, not planning, turned this obsession into a career as a project manager. She earned a Project Management Professional certification (affectionately pronounced “pimp”) from the Project Management Institute. As a consultant, she manages projects for clients and wins accolades for her ability to herd cats. She has fun and makes new friends on every project, but mostly makes things happen.
She’s written 30 books including QuickBooks 2016: The Missing Manual (Intuit’s Official Guide to QuickBooks), Project 2013: The Missing Manual, and Fresh Squeezed, a funny thriller about hitmen and stupid criminals. Bonnie is an engineer, so she’s fascinated by how things work and how to make things work better. She tries to redeem herself by using her sick sense of humor to transform these drool-inducing subjects into entertaining reading.
She has a mostly unused Bachelor of Science in Architecture from MIT and an occasionally useful Master of Science in Structural Engineering from Columbia University. Don’t hold this against her. She’s quite nice, actually.
