Speaking & Media
Give me a microphoneand something worthsharing.
I love the kind of conversation that makes people laugh, think, take notes, reconsider something they believed, and leave ready to do something differently.
Some audiences invite me to talk about taxes. Some about business, entrepreneurship, family, nonprofits, or financial stewardship. And sometimes we talk about what sits underneath all of it: faith, gratitude, purpose, resilience, leadership, and legacy.
My Secret Weapon
Gratitude changes what we see before it changes what we have.
Gratitude does not mean pretending life is perfect. It means refusing to let what is missing make us blind to what is already present. It has carried me through painful seasons, kept success in perspective, and made ordinary moments feel extraordinary.
I had the incredible privilege of taking that message to the TEDx stage. If you want to understand who I am beyond the CPA designation, this is a wonderful place to start.
“Sometimes the difference between a life that constantly feels insufficient and one that feels abundant is simply what we choose to notice.”
