  1. The best advice you ever got: My father raised us with the notion of having both roots and wings. Raised so that you have a strong sense of self and belonging, more than just having a place to call home (roots), and at the same time giving me unconditional love and confidence so that I could spread my wings and leave the nest.
  2. Your three goals for 2019: Familiarize myself with the Qualified Small Business Deduction and to optimize the deduction for my clients, lead entity tax training for new associates, and as always drink more water.
  3. If you weren’t doing this… I would be a dog walker, getting to spend an entire day surronded by dogs sounds amazing.
  4. Your favorite blogs/social media accounts you follow: I love to follow food bloggers and french bulldog accounts on social media. My favorite food blogger is Naptime Kitchen, and my favorite french bulldog account is Walter Geoffrey.
  5. What you do when you’re not at work: Go to my gym, Everybody Fights and hang out with my french bulldog, Gus.
  6. Hometown? Winston-Salem, NC
  7. Where did you go to college? University of North Carolina- Chapel Hill
  8. What’s your favorite color? Pink
  9. What was the last book you read? Crazy Rich Asians by Kevin Kwan
  10. What was the last TV show you watched? Brockmire
  11. What was the last movie you saw? Mary Queen of Scots while at home over Christmas.
  12. Do you have any pets? I have a 3 year old french bulldog, Gus.
  13. Where is your favorite place to vacation? My favorite vacation I ever took was to South Africa. I visited Cape Town which is one of my favorite cities, and also went on a safari. Seeing the lions, giraffes, and elephants in person is absolutely magical.
  14. What’s your favorite quote? "Be the change that you want to see in the world." Gandhi
  15. What’s your favorite restaurant? La Carretta, restaurant in my hometown
  16. What is your favorite benefit the MSCPA offers? I really enjoy the various Young Professional Events that the society offers. It allows me to develop my networking skills and expand my professional network. I especially enjoy the Boston Red Sox game event.
  17. What about accounting excites you the most? I enjoy how tax law is constantly changing, so I am constantly having to learn.
