🔢 The first time she seriously consider accounting happened when she needed her dad’s help with her taxes, and she thought to herself “never again” (and then she went into audit 😆)!

⚡Her superpower would be to speak any language!

Get to know more about our August employee feature, Kort Farran!

When asked what's the best advice he's ever heard, Kort shared this quote from John F. Kennedy, “Do not pray for easy lives, pray to be stronger men.”

He added, "I really like this quote because it might seem odd at first. Who doesn’t want to live an easy life, right? No problems seems great! However, anyone who has lived very long knows that life will inevitably throw difficulties at you from time to time. It’s in those times where we realize that we should have been praying to be a stronger person. That’s where we need strength from God to get through. I do not believe God put us on this Earth to live the easiest life possible. We were put here for a purpose. Rather than thinking about how easy I can make my life, I want to pray for strength so that I can help make the lives of my family and friends better. After all, what was really accomplished with an easy life?" ✨
