What happens when you step away from the office for a few days and spend time learning alongside accountants from across the country?

You come back with a fresh perspective.

After attending the CPAmerica, Inc. Next Gen Conference in Seattle, Dawn Roch, CPA put together a few reflections on leadership, client relationships, and why accounting is about so much more than numbers.

We're excited to welcome three new accountants to Bell & Company!

Ethan Urban joins our Conway office after attending Central Baptist College, where he played collegiate soccer. Ethan says he was drawn to accounting because he enjoys understanding how things fit together and is looking forward to getting involved in firm events and activities.

Katie Boysen joins our Conway office from the University of Central Arkansas. Originally from Iowa, Katie enjoys pickleball, weekend trips, and spending time with family and friends. She chose accounting because it combines problem-solving, analytics, and a variety of career opportunities. She's also working toward becoming a CPA.

Asher Jackson joins our North Little Rock office after earning both his undergraduate and master's degrees in accounting from University of Central Arkansas. Outside the office, he enjoys fishing, and Whole Hog is at the top of his favorite foods list.

As an employee-owned firm, we're building something for the long term, and that starts with investing in great people. We're excited to have Ethan, Katie, and Asher on board!

Interested in joining a team where your work helps build the future of the firm? We'd love to talk.

Big shoutout to Jaison Sterling for being featured on the cover of 501 LIFE Magazine!

Jaison and his wife have built something special through Sterling Imageworks Photography and Rock Town Media, creating memorable experiences and incredible images for athletes and their families.

We love getting to celebrate the talented families behind our Bell team. Congrats, Jaison!

By Mark Oliver When Jaison Sterling steps behind the camera, something electric happens. Smoke swirls. Gels ignite the air with color. Athletes leap, sprint or shatter breakaway glass in a burst of motion that feels more like a movie scene than a photo shoot. For Sterling, co-founder of Rock Town
