Manager Tax Department

I joined KT after college and was an auditor for five years. Many of my audit clients were nonprofits and construction. From there, I became the controller for two large, local construction companies for a combined six years. I then came back to KT, joining the tax department while also doing some consulting work with local construction companies. I have a well-rounded knowledge of the construction industry since I have worn so many “hats.”

I am currently working on better training for the KT staff involved with construction, training in Foundation software, and have organized and presented at the firm’s Construction Lunch and Learn. Because of my nonprofit experience, I specialize in preparing and reviewing 990 forms. I think it is exciting to see the number of charitable organizations in our community. In addition, I prepare and review individual and business tax returns.

Education

  • BS in Accounting – University of Wyoming

Professional Affiliations

  • American Institute of Certified Public Accountants
  • South Dakota CPA Society

Personal

I’m excited and nervous about the next phase of my life – becoming an empty nester with two daughters in college. I have opportunities to explore my interests outside of “just” being a mom and look forward to hiking, reading, walking, training my dogs, doing home projects, and traveling. I might also reconnect with my prior interests like music (piano, guitar, and singing) and pheasant hunting, and if my friends have their way, I will learn how to golf!
