Overview
About
I hold a Bachelor of Commerce (2015) and a Master of Accounting (2020) from the University of Alberta. I also completed the CPA Professional Education Program and wrote the Common Final Examination (CFE) in Taxation (2017). I hold a Chartered Professional Accountant designation (2018).
I have taught at the University of Alberta since 2016. I have various teaching interests that center around financial reporting and taxation.
Prior to joining the University of Alberta full-time, I spent 3 years in public practice accounting, primarily working with small business clientele and non-profit organizations. I worked on various engagements focused on assurance, financial reporting, and taxation.
I am a member of the CPA Assist Committee and I actively volunteer with CPA Alberta, the University of Alberta, and other non-profit organizations. I also fund several scholarships, awards, and sponsorships at the University of Alberta and Edmonton Valley Zoo.
Outside of accounting, I enjoy staying active and participate in CrossFit and gymnastics.
