I grew up in Fort Worth and earned my Bachelor’s and Master’s in Accounting from the University of Texas at Austin.

After college, I began my career at Deloitte in the Dallas audit practice where, for nearly three years, I served a variety of clients and industries. I then spent over three years in the internal audit group at Verizon where I led multidisciplinary teams in the execution of highly visible operational, financial, and SOX audits. Most recently, I was at Toyota Financial Services where I served as Assistant Controller for a Toyota subsidiary. At TFS, I was responsible for all aspects of accounting and financial reporting related to an insurance services company.

At Embark, I use my love for constant learning, building relationships, and solving problems, and my diverse professional experiences, to serve our clients excellently.

Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my family and friends, playing basketball, watching just about any sporting event (but especially the Longhorns and Cowboys), and good coffee and food. Finally, I love to travel the world and experience new places and cultures.
