At Incserv, our people are what make the difference – and we’re excited to introduce the folks that make this place special. Each quarter, we profile an Incserv team member, sharing a little bit about what they do, how they got here and what matters to them outside the world of incorporating services. In this installment, we sit down with compliance division associate, Rosa Allen. Enjoy!

Thanks for taking the time to chat, Rosa. Let’s jump right in! Tell us a little about your role at Incserv and what you do? 

I work in our compliance division. I communicate with our clients and file annual reports, working closely with the Delaware Secretary of State and Division of Corporations. We interact with a lot of people day in and day out. No day is the same and I love that.

And how did you get into compliance? 

It wasn’t exactly a straight line! I was previously in the culinary arts field. I prefer ‘art’ versus food services because at my core I’m an artist. More on that later! Before Incserv, I worked for Aramark for over 11 years. I worked my way up from a prep cook to an Assistant Food Services Director. I was even inducted into the company’s ‘Ring of Stars.’

My experience at Aramark presented me with a challenge to understand the business aspect behind culinary arts. The office work – things like budget planning, meeting prep, paperwork – helped set a foundation for a love of problem solving and organization. Those skills are a necessity within our compliance department.

That’s an unexpected career switch! How did you find Incserv? 

I saw a listing on Indeed. I had really amazing first interviews with both Stacey and Rose. The rest is history. 

How long have you been working for Incserv? 

It’s been almost a year and a half now! Which is crazy to think about. I just love my job, and the team I work with.

What do you like most about it? 

Every day and even every season is a little different. January through June is extremely high-paced. Everything is coming at you, in a good way! I’m a very detail-oriented person and I love to use my time management skills and really focus on gathering and collecting information. I come from working in a high stress job so this is sort of second nature for me. Just in a new setting, of course. I love having the opportunity to talk with people all over the country. CEOs. CFOs. Large companies. Small companies. It’s exciting. You feel like an extension of their company and I love partnering with them. I also love that I can incorporate my creativity – especially when it comes to solving unique challenges.

That’s right. You mentioned being an artist at your core. What’s that about?

I love art! I write, draw, and even face paint. Being an artist is something I incorporated as a side gig with my company, A Koolinary Experience. Our culinary art spreads were even featured in Mingle Magazine in 2019 which was very exciting! I also love to spend time with my family. We enjoy movie nights; even partaking in the Alice in Wonderland Adventures and dressing up in costume.

Love it. Rosa, it was a pleasure getting to know you and what you do for Incserv. Keep up the great work!

Thank you!
