Making a Difference, One Relationship at a Time
I’ve always loved animals and wanted to make a real-world impact, not in the zoo-keeper kind of way, but by supporting people and businesses to thrive. My natural gift for numbers led me to accounting in high school, and I quickly realized I could fulfill that goal by helping entrepreneurs and business owners navigate tax and finance challenges. Now, at HW Partners, my mission is to build lasting relationships that help companies succeed and individuals feel supported.
A Bit About My Journey
I joined HW Partners as a co‑op student from the University of Waterloo in 2012 while completing my Master’s in Accounting. I joined the team full-time in 2014 and earned my CPA, CA designation in 2016. Since then, I’ve focused on assurance services and client support, working closely with a wide range of clients across sectors.
What Matters to Me
Connection matters, whether it’s with clients, colleagues, or through community initiatives. I enjoy networking and collaborating to create a lively and inclusive work environment. I’m even a vocal advocate for adding a firm pet (yes, I’m still trying to convince the team!). My passion lies in supporting entrepreneurs by bringing clarity, confidence, and good humour to our engagements.
Life Outside the Office
I love being outdoors and spending time with my “mini-zoo”—one cat and one dog. I previously volunteered as Treasurer for Therapeutic Paws of Canada and continue to stay involved in initiatives close to my heart. Animals remain a big part of my world, just in a slightly more manageable way.
