I thrive on being involved:
Involved with my clients and with the community. Accounting services are more
than compliance. It's knowing people, knowing their abilities, knowing what accounting
processes are important in their perspective. We must be flexible, for everyone
approaches things differently.
Raising a family and working has made me very committed to the community. I serve
as an officer and trustee for Leadership Lake County and the Mentor Public Library.
I am active with Painesville's Rotary Club, Lake County Development Council (Trustee),
Western Reserve Junior Service League and volunteer at many fundraising events.
In addition, I have served on the Lake County Bar Association Grievance Committee
for many years.
