Name: Alex Jones Hometown: Broomall Company: Brinker Simpson & Company, LLC Position: Senior Manager Length of time you have been with your company: 5.5 Years Briefly describe your journey, noting both personal milestones and obstacles you may have faced along the way. I started at Brinker Simpson & Company after feeling burnt out in public accounting and the industry. I wasn't studying for my CPA; I felt stagnant and uninspired. A friend reached out to apply for a position at Brinker Simpson and instantly knew I had found what I was looking for. The leadership group at Brinker Simpson & Company immediately let me grow and focus on my personal and business goals, which continue to this day. Many obstacles along the way are personal, but when you can work through your obstacles with support, you come out stronger. We all faced the uncertainty of the pandemic, and with the solid backing from my company, we all came out stronger and have continued to grow significantly. Since joining the team, I've had four promotions and obtained my CPA License.
