Outreach Beyond Your Firm (max 100 words):
Beyond my firm, I focus heavily on mentorship, education, and community leadership. I serve as an adjunct professor at Harris-Stowe State University, where I teach accounting and finance and help students navigate professional pathways. Through nonprofit leadership, I work to expand youth financial literacy, college readiness, and leadership development.
I have also supported professional pipeline efforts through organizations such as NABA, AGA, and MOCPA, creating opportunities for students and young professionals to access mentorship, scholarships, and exposure to careers in accounting and finance. I am also in the process of reestablishing my lavender garden in St. Louis where my home once stood, as a small part of restoring the community after the May 16, 2025 tornado.
