With more than 25 years in the tax and accounting space, I bring a wealth of experience and a passion for clear communication to every project. A magna cum laude graduate from MACU in Oklahoma (where I still reside) with an English-Business degree, I blend technical expertise with storytelling to make complex topics accessible and engaging.

When I'm not crafting content, you'll likely find me in a gym coaching girls volleyball—a role that brings me immense joy as I help shape the next generation of leaders. I love exploring the outdoors through hiking and kayaking (as long as the weather cooperates!), and at home, I'm entertained by my two mini schnauzers and a steady stream of true crime podcasts and British crime dramas.

As a mom to an adult daughter and a lifelong learner, I understand the importance of balancing professionalism with authenticity. I believe the best writing comes from a place of genuine connection, whether I'm breaking down technical concepts or sharing industry insights.
