MORE TXCPA NEWS

I would love to tell you a story about finding a passion for helping business owners or saving people money on their tax returns. The honest truth is I realized being a CPA was going to give me a job forever and help me build the lifestyle I wanted. I enjoy travel, fancy restaurants, and good wine. Being a CPA has given me a path to that. Along the way I have certainly enjoyed helping people (I'm not a monster y'all), but its not the actual WHY that drove my choice.

-Brandon L. Howard, CPA, Owner of Brandon L. Howard CPA PLLC.

I was excited to get involved in my local chapter and give back to the community. I actively participated in events and the chapter followed up with lots of opportunities for me to serve and lead. I’m involved with programs for students and young professionals, because I think it is important to connect with the next generation of CPAs.

-Lara Akinboye, CPA, CFE, CMA
