#MeetUsMonday :: Introducing Riley

We are so excited to introduce you to Riley, one of our newest team members! She is an Accountant on our CFO Services team who is making things happen in Dayton on the daily!   

Not being your average bean counters, it's important to us that you know who we are, what we stand for, and the crazy things we spend our time doing when we aren't serving you! Now, get to know....

Introduce your family:

I was born and raised in Dayton, Ohio, by my amazing parents, Chris and Maureen, and have one older brother, Cameron. We have three dogs, Winnie, Buster, and Sasha, also known as my best friends. Additionally, I have a bearded dragon, named Mac, a leopard gecko, named Iggy, and a fish, named Moose.

What are you most looking forward to over the next couple of months?

Over the next couple of months (or more likely the next year), I am looking forward to taking and passing all my CPA exams, and finally having some free time after work that doesn't involve studying!

Why do you do what you do?

I started at Wright State as a biological sciences major, and then switched to nursing. I soon realized that those were not the paths for me, and sought guidance from my brother's girlfriend, Sophie; she had a similar experience of switching majors but ended up in accounting, so I decided to try out an accounting class. After the first few weeks, I knew accounting was what I wanted to do. I love the (mostly) clear cut nature of it, and the fact that I was still able to help people in an important way. The most rewarding part is helping a client's business be the best that it can be. 

At which store would you like to max-out your credit card?

I would like to max out my credit card at Ulta and Target. 

The best chip ever is...

The best chip ever is a tie between Ruffles cheddar and sour cream and Lay's dill pickle. 

What is your favorite dessert?

My favorite dessert is all of them. I am a huge foodie with an even bigger sweet tooth. 

Share a picture of something you love.

That's a wrap!  We can't wait to share more about all of our team members, but  since there is more to us than just counting beans we are going to take this one rockstar at a time!  Until next #MeetUsMonday ... Go Make Dreams Come True!
