Growing up in a small town instilled in Jane an appreciation for small businesses and a desire to provide resources to underserved communities. After graduating with her bachelor's degree, Jane embarked on her career while balancing the demands of young motherhood. Juggling a demanding role with motherhood was never going to be easy, but Jane embraced this challenge head-on. "To be successful in nearly anything these days, you need organization, time management, and an understanding of meaningful priorities," she states, shedding light on her mantra for work-life balance.
The intricacies of motherhood intertwined with professional challenges, teaching her invaluable lessons in patience and resilience. "Navigating the path through motherhood and adversities within the field itself, strengthened my resolve to persevere," Jane reflects. Her motivation wasn't just personal, though. She was intent on showing her children that success could be cultivated through grit, determination, and a clear vision.
Navigating various challenges in the accounting field only strengthened Jane's resolve to forge her own path to success. Jane's connection with small and family-owned businesses gave her a unique insight. She realized the significance of financial responsibility within these communities, many of which were grappling with the basics of good financial habits. Drawing from her background in finance, Jane began consulting for small and family-owned businesses, helping them develop good financial habits and a stronger sense of responsibility. "My education equipped me with the tools and knowledge base to assist these companies in creating their own blueprint for financial success," she mentions with pride.
As word spread of Jane's expertise, she began receiving referrals to work with companies across various industries. Jane credits her loyal client base for facilitating these opportunities to diversify her skills. "Like many small businesses, I benefit from networking, grassroots marketing, and word of mouth," Jane says. The intersections of these industries often brought in new opportunities, showcasing the power of networking and relationship-building in her journey.

But for Jane, the company is more than just its widespread services and growing acclaim. It is an extension of her family.
With her visionary eyes set on the future, Jane's ambition for JMC isn't merely to expand its professional reach. She has nurtured a dream of turning it into a hub of learning and growth. She envisions providing training opportunities to mold the next generation of finance experts. For her, expanding the team isn't about increasing numbers, but about enriching the JMC family with individuals who truly resonate with the company's core values — those who are hardworking, knowledgeable, and have a genuine commitment to clients. "People who will prioritize the clients' needs and provide top-tier professionalism," she emphasizes, underlining the ethos that drives JMC's continued success and expansion.
To budding finance enthusiasts and entrepreneurs, Jane's advice is crisp and clear: "If you fail to plan, you plan to fail." The journey into finance demands research, planning, and execution.
