Since 2015, Michon has been a valuable member of the White Nelson Diehl Evans team. As a tax manager, she works primarily in the manufacturing, distribution, landscaping, and construction industries. Prior to joining WNDE, Michon spent three years doing tax and audit work for Stockton, Scurry & Smith P.C.
A tenacious worker, Michon persists until she finds the solution to the issue at hand. She explains that she chose to pursue a career in accounting because she has “always been an accountant.” Even as a little girl, she enjoyed paying bills with her father. Michon attributes her career success to the support of her family. Without it, she would not be where she is today.
Michon currently lives in Lakewood, her hometown. She has two rescue dogs—a Dutch Shepherd named Beauty and a Pit Bull named Copper. She enjoys Lakewood for its diversity of people, food and culture. Not many people know that Michon has danced flamenco professionally for over 15 years.
