I grew up in the Okanagan and discovered my passion for accounting in Grade 12. I moved to Victoria, BC to obtain a BBA in Accounting which turned into obtaining my Chartered Accountant designation (CPA) in 2011. During my career, I have had exposure to many different businesses and industries, including construction, textile and bast fiber manufacturing, oil and gas services, and transportation while working in Victoria, BC and Calgary, AB. After being away from the Okanagan for 15 years, I moved back in 2020 to be closer to my family and ended up joining the Westwood team. I have learned a lot about the industry in such a short period and I find it interesting and exciting at the same time. I hold a strong skillset in financial accounting, change management, and process development. I take pride in being a lifelong learner and leader and I love to help people using my years of experience. When I am not in the office, I am spending time with my new family, golfing, snowboarding or enjoying the outdoors.
