HEATHER ZEITZWOLFE, CPA

REBEL - NERD - ACTIVIST - ENTREPRENEUR - GOOFBALL - CULT FILM AFICIONADO - VEGAN

Forward thinker.

Accounting is often viewed as a backwards looking model. Sure, it’s important to gain knowledge from the past, but Heather finds leaning into the future more exciting. No, she’s not psychic, she harnesses the powerful magic of data.

Inquisitive mind.

Heather asks a lot of questions! Her husband thinks she could have had a career as an investigative reporter. She really likes to dig deep and get to the root of the issue. Just like Alice in Wonderland, everything becomes curiouser and cursiourer.

Listens intently.

Okay, okay…it’s a known fact that Heather loves to talk and make a joke any chance she gets. But despite her chatty nature, she’s a good listener. Sure, all the loud concerts she’s been to have done a lot of damage, but that doesn’t stop her.

Heather is down to earth, non-judgemental, and actually enjoys all this number stuff so you don’t have to. Heather is both analytical and creative; she’s a bundle of positive energy, far from the stereotype of the “boring” accountant. Heather has a strong passion for veganism, standing up for civil rights, and saving the environment. Her guilty pleasures include binge watching RuPaul’s Drag Race and scarfing down salted caramel cashew ice cream. When she’s not glued to her computer, she loves creating delicious food, hanging out with her hubby, cuddling her three cats and serving as an officer for her Toastmasters’ club.

Heather is also a David Lynch fan. For those who watched Twin Peaks; yes - those pictures above are an homage to the Log Lady.
