The Verification Mindset
My path to accounting was deliberate. Before managing financial records, I worked as a lead Non-Destructive Testing (NDT) technician. In that role, a single oversight could compromise the safety of industrial infrastructure. There was no room for "estimation"–only verification.
I bring that same non-negotiable standard to accounting. Whether I am inspecting a pipeline or reconciling a Balance Sheet, the philosophy is identical: verify the data, document the findings, and ensure compliance with the standard.
Since 2016, I have served as a Tax Professional, preparing returns across nine tax seasons for a diverse range of clients — including complex multi-state, military, and tribal returns. Now holding my Associate of Science in Accounting, I combine the regulatory knowledge of a tax preparer with the structural discipline of a corporate accountant, currently applying both as a Staff Accountant in manufacturing.
