While completing my undergrad at UW-Whitewater, participation in the university's accounting internship program partnered me with SVA in Madison for my first professional experience in public accounting during the 2017 busy season. While interning, I gained exposure to state property tax filing, business auditing and assurance services, as well as partnership, corporate, and individual tax preparation. The education, experience, and opportunity available at SVA led me to accept a full time position as staff accountant after graduation from UW-Whitewater in December of 2017. After 4 busy seasons in public accounting at SVA, I resigned from my role as senior staff accountant in August 2020 to take time for personal growth and search out new opportunities.In November 2020, I received and accepted an amazing opportunity to become co-owner of locally famous Capital Lock, Inc. in Madison, WI. Stay tuned while my co-owner Mike Stilwell and mentor David Koenig change the future of locksmithing.During the summer, I enjoy playing basketball, sand volleyball, and frisbee golfing. During the winter when I'm not grinding in the office, I can be found catching fish on icy Rock Lake, bowling strikes at Lake Ripley Lanes, or riding the snowmobile trails up in the U.P.
