How did you start your career with V2?

I began working with V2 as a contractor in 2017, supporting a variety of accounting & finance-related initiatives. Come 2021; I joined V2 full-time as a Finance Director.

How have you grown professionally & personally at V2? 

I have a wide range of responsibilities at V2 that are not only knee-deep in accounting work but cover other aspects of the business (payroll, taxes, insurance, financial forecasts); I enjoy having a variety of work and learning and figuring out new things as they come along. I gained the confidence to make decisions and run with them while also knowing that there is a team who will support me when needed.

What is your favorite part of your job?

My favorite part of my job is not a particular thing/task/project that I am responsible for, but rather the fact that it offers variety; it is never boring. I also love the opportunity to utilize new technologies we use internally.

What motivates you to wake up and go to work?

What motivates me is knowing that I am contributing to the success of an amazing company while utilizing and developing my talents and skills.

Who is your biggest inspiration?

Henry David Thoreau. He has a quote that resonates with me – “Go confidently in the direction of your dreams. Live the life you imagined.”
