A bit about myself...

---

 Born in Tulsa, I also lived in SD, IL, MS, TN, and NC before settling in the Dallas metroplex in 2007.  My desire for learning coupled with a strong work ethic started early and paid off as I was the Valedictorian of my high school graduating class.  In 2007 I earned a Bachelor’s in Music Education from the University of NC (Greensboro) and moved on to become a choir teacher for Dallas ISD.   Switching gears in 2012, I pursued a Master’s in Accounting, graduating from Kaplan University in 2013.  

​

With a passion for education coupled with a love for accounting, I worked as the District Accountant and, eventually, as the Director of Accounting for Wylie Independent School District.  In this position, I managed the Accounts Payable and Accounting Offices for the District.  While there I earned the Registered Texas School Business Administrator (RTSBA) certification through Texas Association of School Business Officials (TASBO) and gained substantial experience in Governmental Accounting, state and federal funding, budget projection and analysis, and team management.

Since my time with Wylie ISD, I worked at Region 10 Education Service Center as the Coordinator of Finance and Accounting.  Additionally, I have spent over 3  years working with small and medium-size business providing accounting, consulting, and tax prep services.

I am a Certified ProAdvisor for QuickBooks Online and have completed Dave Ramsey's Financial Coach Master Training  and am a Ramsey Preferred Coach.  I find great joy building relationships with clients, working together to help them achieve individual and business financial goals.
