I formed my own CPA firm, which I operated for more than 23 years before merging my company with The Planning Center in 2011. Today, I am responsible for the accounting and tax services provided to our clients, and managing internal accounting and tax matters for all of our offices. My career focus is to serve our clients to the best of my ability. It is a pleasure being a part of The Planning Center and coming to work every day. There are always new and different assignments, and I am constantly teaching others and learning myself. Most of all, I love interacting with our clients and helping them make life-planning decisions.
I live each day to the fullest with no regrets. Though I am widowed, I had the joy of having a wonderful husband. I especially love spending time with my family and friends. My three stepchildren and six step-grandchildren are a blessing to me. On my days off work, I enjoy brisk walks, golf, biking, and singing in Praise Ensemble at contemporary worship service at church.
