• Favorite Thing About My Job: Turning messy financials into clean, understandable systems that give people clarity and confidence instead of stress. It’s rewarding to help our team save time on processes and get reliable financials to clients as soon as possible!
• Favorite Vacation You’ve Taken: A backpack motorcycle trip along Northern Ireland’s Causeway Coastal Route. Coastal cliffs, tiny fishing towns, Guinness at random pubs, and insane views the whole way.
• What is your go-to karaoke song? Anything country! I grew up in a small farm town in New Jersey (yes, that’s a thing), so I always end up going back to my roots.
• Favorite Way to Celebrate Your Birthday: Experiences all day. Ideally, I’m traveling somewhere new with people I love, doing something active or interesting, and ending it with a great meal. No giant parties, no random gifts — just memories.
• Favorite Concert You’ve Attended: On the Run Tour with Beyoncé and Jay-Z. I waitressed so many doubles in high school to afford floor tickets and it was 100% worth it.
• Favorite Workout or Sport to Play: Hot Pilates followed by iced coffee and a long walk.
