How I got here:
“While earning my bachelor’s degree in accounting from SUNY Geneseo, I landed an internship position at Rockbridge. From there, I developed a real passion for what Rockbridge brings to their clients’ lives. When approaching graduation, I spoke with multiple firms in the industry, but it was apparent to me that my values best aligned with the values in practice every day at Rockbridge. Several years later, I still consider myself lucky to work with such a fantastic team every day.”
Favorite part of the job:
“I have always enjoyed the process of problem-solving. Today, that passion takes shape in the form of simplifying the financial picture for clients of Rockbridge. It is rewarding to know that the work I do directly translates into peace of mind for the client, something that everyone can appreciate when it comes to finances.”
