Outreach Beyond the Firm:
I’m an educator, mentor, content creator, and consulting firm owner. I’m a strong voice for nontraditional career paths, especially among career changers and military families. I’m passionate about helping accountants learn what they need to know to be their best, ranging from technical skills to bolstering a resilient mindset (which is often the more challenging part). I’m a big supporter of licensure and encouraging the best and the brightest to join our lucrative, ever-evolving profession.
I fiercely advocate for the value of getting the CPA license, whether going into traditional (i.e., large audit/tax firms) or non-traditional career paths (like mine!). I often talk about how technology plays a role in the future of accounting and innovation. I am very concerned about keeping the profession relevant for future generations.
