Meet the Convergence Team

Stuart Phillips, CPA
President

I am the Master Developer and 50% owner of Convergence Technologies ltd. I have been doing Sage programming and consulting since 1996. I live in Syracuse, IN with my wife Denise, the other owner of Convergence. Shannon is our only child, and a practicing attorney in Fort Wayne, Indiana. I graduated from Manchester College where Denise and I met, with a B.S. in Accounting. Prior to becoming a Sage consultant and programmer, I started out as an internal auditor, corporate accountant, and then a Controller at a few different companies and industries, such as, Healthcare, Construction and Non Profit. I got into the Sage consulting, because I wanted to get out of the day to day accounting. Some of my hobbies are watching sports, spending time on the lake, and enjoying some R & R time.

Margie Garber
Marketing Support

I just joined the Convergence team in 2021 and help with the company's marketing and website design. I received my Bachelor in Science in Business Management at Indiana University South Bend in 2020. I have always been interested in design and making spaces or objects look nice, whether that be digitally or physically. The past three years I worked in Illustrator and Photoshop designing packaging and product images. When I am not working I still like to research design (specifically interior design), go on walks, and most of all I love spending time with my family. My husband and I have 1 daughter and another baby on the way. I am very blessed!
