They also want her to have presense.  She's got Polycom IP 650 with sidecar, they have IP 550 phones.  Thusfar I've got her registering to 4 extensions.  Each extension is labeled with an executive and rings alongside theirs(Dial(SIP/126&SIP/191)) just didn't know if there was a better way.  I also have presense setup on her Sidecar but it only has one status, is there a way for her to know their line is ringing and not just "in use." ?

You have two options for #2:

You can define a SIP alertInfo for different rings in the sip.cfg and 
then in asterisk set the alert info header in the dialplan.

You can change the reg.x.ringType on each registration in the phone's 
config file.

See the SIP admin guide for details.
