Our Team

Brittany’s journey into the accounting world was an unexpected one. Before reaching college, she never really saw herself as the type to get excited about profit and loss statements and monthly balance sheets, but then she stumbled upon her hidden talent (and passion) for accounting and switched majors, eventually becoming the CPA we all know and love. She came to see accounting as this cool and dynamic field that can change lives – a perspective she loves sharing with her clients and peers.

After snagging her Bachelor’s degree, Brittany landed in the hustle and bustle of NYC, jumping into the real estate scene and tackling a Master’s in Taxation at Pace University. As she improved her knowledge of the field, Brittany shot up the ranks in her professional life, eventually taking charge of a team of property accountants and handling a hefty property portfolio that spanned the avenues and streets of the Big Apple. Yet, in spite of this success, Brittany felt a strong tug towards something more meaningful and fulfilling. Cue Countless – an approach to accounting that centers the delicate life-work balance we all hope to achieve.

Since kickstarting Countless in 2016, Brittany’s entrepreneurial journey has worked to reshape how accountants approach small business. Her expertise has guided clients across 24 states through often-tricky financial terrain. Her hard work has proved a positive asset for her clients, including two client companies who have been now picked up by major Fortune 500 and Fortune 100 players … all while maintaining those all-important GAAP compliance standards like a boss.

Brittany has since replaced the bustling streets of NYC for tranquil suburbs of Philly, where she finds joy in hiking with her furballs, checking out new food spots, and adding a touch of beauty to the world. Her mission? Show her clients and the accounting world at-large that this business isn’t just about numbers and spreadsheets – it’s a way to chase dreams, just like she did.

It could be said that Karrie found accounting in her first job as a marketing professional, but the better way to put it might be that accounting found her. As a military brat, Karrie spent much of her childhood on the move, eventually settling in Georgia. Later, as a student at Georgia Southern University, she struggled to decide between marketing and accounting, eventually going with the former. Degree in hand, Karrie landed her first marketing gig … ironically, in the accounting center of a Fortune 500 company, processing accounts receivable and handling cash operations. Yes, it would seem that love (and accounting) always finds a way, and Karrie was inspired to return to school at Mercer University to get that accounting degree. Three years later, she sat for her CPA exams and the rest, as they say, is beautiful, accounting history.

Today, Karrie is a proud dance mom to her daughter (jazz hands!) and cat mom to the ever-present “Mocha” and “Coffee Bean.” Outside of the office, she finds time to explore her world through hiking, kayaking, and paddle boarding.

Alexandria initially believed her professional calling was to work within the vineyards and cellars of the wine industry, but it turned out she is truly her mother’s daughter and the call to accounting was even stronger than her love of a great Grenache. It was as a student at Washington State University Alexandria first discovered that, when it came to her future career, her love of numbers outweighed her love of libations. Two required college courses (and Alexandria’s strong relationship with her CPA mother) was all it took to lure her into the realm of public accounting. She’s now four years in and studying for her CPA exams. We’ll toast to that!

Alexandria loves spending time with her husband, Dallas, their cat, Forest, and, yes, her first best friend – mom – at their home in Lewiston, ID. Away from the books and the exams, she always finds moments for wine tastings and dinners with friends.

May Chan appreciates the beauty found in organization and order – she has always loved the process of organizing things in ways that produce something meaningful. Naturally, she fell head over heels for accounting. After earning her BBA in Accountancy from Georgia State University, May entered into corporate accounting at one of the Big 4, then got into asset management, then accounting research and policy, and then discovered she was really bored with corporate accounting. It was then she discovered bookkeeping and her love affair with accounting was rekindled. May also found that she loved working with small businesses – so much more than the faceless corporations where she had gotten her start. Turns out that organizing things for other people is really rewarding (who knew!?!?).

And if working with Countless wasn’t enough awesomeness for one person, May now lives in Florida … right near the beach, riding out her free time with books, nature, family, and, of course, organizing the world around her.

Hailing from Billings, MT, Emily Toennis has always found a unique harmony between her professional pursuits and her love for the outdoors. Inspired by a transformative college course and a student instructor’s passion, Emily dove into the world of accounting, intrigued by the potential for financial independence through the mastery of numbers and software. Emily comes to Countless after the hustle and bustle of a mid-size public accounting firm; she excels in tax preparation and bookkeeping, viewing her work as a puzzle where every piece must find its proper place, telling a clear and compelling story through numbers.

Outside the office, Emily is a passionate advocate for a balanced life, engaging in rock and ice climbing, hiking, camping, and even assembling Lego sets to recharge (what can we say, the girl loves solving puzzles). Her dedication to yoga and nutrition is part of her broader commitment to nurturing mind, body, and soul, ensuring she enjoys every day to the fullest, supported by the natural beauty of her surroundings.

Kayla is no stranger to numbers – you could say she grew up with them all around her. As a lifelong resident of Las Vegas and a working accountant in the “city that never sleeps,” numbers have always been a presence in her life. Though, it wasn’t luck that brought her to our offices … it was family. Kayla first discovered her love for bookkeeping in high school while interning for the accounting firm where her grandmother worked. Kayla had a natural talent and found something appealing about getting lost in the numbers for hours on end. She went on to earn her business management degree from Western Governors University and she hasn’t looked back. She brings with her over six years of experience and all of that desert sunshine just seems to radiate out in her client interactions.

Outside of the office, the glitz and glam of her hometown are the furthest things from her thoughts – Kayla loves the outdoors and prefers camping and adventuring to the big lights of the Las Vegas Strip. She’d much rather enjoy the company of her dog, Cassie, and friends and family than anything else.

From the vibrant streets of Los Angeles to the glittering skyline of Las Vegas, Kitty Rivera has navigated her world with a zest for adventure and a flair for numbers. After a serendipitous meeting with an accounting firm owner while working in the hospitality industry, Kitty was inspired to switch her focus from hospitality to Business Administration. Now, with over six years in public and private accounting, she’s a seasoned pro at transforming financial chaos into order. Kitty thrives on providing clarity and insight, easing the financial burdens of her clients, and giving them the freedom to focus on their passions. “I really enjoy the feeling of catharsis after solving puzzles and making sense of all things numbers.”

Beyond her desk, Kitty’s life is a tapestry of travel, music, yoga, and mindfulness. She revels in exploring new music spots with her fiancé, finding tranquility in meditation, and cherishing moments with friends, family, and fur-friends. Overall, whether decoding complex financial data or balancing the books, Kitty finds profound fulfillment in making numbers work for wellness.

Born and raised in Virginia Beach, Kayla Rickard has always been immersed in a world where creativity meets commerce. With local entrepreneurs and vibrant artists as her backdrop, she ventured into business studies with a clear mission: to support the dreams of small businesses and indie creators. While she initially thought marketing or graphic design would capture her heart, it was the surprising allure of accounting that truly resonated with her. The required courses she once dreaded soon became the foundation of her newfound passion for numbers and organization. Today, Kayla has transformed that passion into bookkeeping, where she revels in the art of transforming raw data into polished financial reports. She thrives on making the entrepreneurial journey smoother for her clients, ensuring their creative visions are supported by solid financial structures.

Off the books, Kayla indulges in her own creative pursuits—from crafting artisan soaps that could easily be mistaken for decadent desserts to drawing and writing. Whether she’s curled up with a good book, enjoying a movie, or spending quality time with friends and family, Kayla’s life is a vivid tapestry of numbers, narrative, and imagination.
