Stronger Together: Empowering the Next Generation
CEO’s Message
By TXCPA President and CEO Jodi Ann Ray, CAE
As we turn the page into fall, I’m excited to share the September/October issue with you. This edition is especially close to my heart because it focuses on something that’s vital to the future of the profession and of TXCPA – building and supporting the CPA pipeline.
Our cover story, “Building the CPA Pipeline: A Faculty Perspective,” offers a thoughtful look at how educators are shaping tomorrow’s professionals. You’ll also find a visual roundup of TXCPA resources for students and candidates, a spotlight on Houston student member Mariella Bosquez, and a special thank you to our student and faculty ambassadors who are helping us grow the profession from the ground up.
We’ve also included a recap of our TXCPA Annual Meeting, updates from TXCPA’s chapters around the state and some powerful technical content – from the evolving landscape of greenhouse gas emissions reporting to practical strategies for attracting more CAS clients. And if you’re looking to sharpen your skills, don’t miss our CPE feature on inventory and financial control.
But here’s what I want to be sure you know: none of this works without you.
Whether you choose to mentor a student, become a Pipeline Champion or share your story in our new “Meet the CPAs” feature, your involvement matters. It’s how we build a stronger, more connected profession – together.
Thank you for being part of TXCPA. Your passion, your time and your voice are what drive TXCPA, and the profession, into the future.
How can TXCPA help you in 2025-2026?
