“Provide outstanding customer service.“ 

Heather became part of RBC in 2015 and serves as Senior Associate, where she works with clients in various industries including the construction, real estate, restaurant, and medical fields. Heather brings over 17 years of experience in the accounting field, is Xero certified, and is a QuickBooks ProAdvisor who prides herself on her knowledge and speed! She first became inspired to pursue accounting when her mother-in-law threw a general ledger book in front of her and said, “find the penny.” From that moment, she was hooked! 

 Described as loud and loyal, Heather believes in living each day as if it’s your last. She had her first child at 16 and is proud that she did not give up on her education. She attributes her success to the support of her family, who helped her prove she could do it. Today, Heather lives in Floresville with her spouse of 32 years, Aaron. She has two children, a daughter, Erin, a son, Justin, and seven grandchildren.
