When did you first become interested in Finance?

I first became interested in finance when I was in college. I double majored in Accounting and English at Wingate University. I originally thought about being a school teacher but I wasn’t sure about it. My roommate was an accounting major and so I took a few classes with her and loved it so I chose accounting.

What is your favorite part of what you do at FWP?

I really love the staff and work environment along with learning new things every day.

Do you have any unique hobbies?

I recently joined a group called Dino Do Gooders. They are a community group that goes out into the community during the pandemic to spread smiles, laughter and love by dressing up in inflatable costumes and dancing around to fun music. (Primarily to nursing homes and assisted living facilities where people can’t have visitors or leave.) They can watch and laugh from their windows or a balcony while maintaining social distancing. It is really fun!

Do you have a favorite Bible Verse or Quote?

My favorite bible verse is Joshua 1:9. Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid: do not be discouraged, for the LORD your God will be with you wherever you go.

What books can we find on your bookshelf?

I love mystery books. I took a class on Sherlock Holmes in college and was able to go to London to see Baker Street and several places where the Sherlock Holmes mysteries were set. Mary Higgins Clark is my favorite author and I have all her books. I also like Sandra Brown, John Grisham and Nicholas Sparks.
