Megan Tidwell, CPA
Our greatest glory is not in never failing, but in rising every time we fail.” ― Confucius
I grew up in the Piedmont Region of North Carolina in a small, close knit community of farmers. Everyone knew each other, for example my high school teacher taught my mother and went to school with my grandmother. I followed in my grandfather’s footsteps and joined the military. There, I met my husband while we were both serving in the U.S. Navy stationed in New Orleans. We have two adult sons, a daughter-n-law, and a granddaughter. During my off hours, I enjoy yoga, a good book and a nice cup of hot tea.
Professional Background & Experience
I started my work career in Navy as a Data Processor working with mainframes and then desktop computers. Once I left the Navy, I focused on raising my two sons and worked part time in information technology, tax preparation, and as a staff accountant. Once I finished my undergraduate with SNHU, I attended Auburn University of Montgomery and received my MBA from Auburn University of Montgomery. After relocating to the Jackson Metro Area, I have worked several accounting positions from Senior Property accountant, Process Improvement, Revenue Manager and now as a Controller. I have managed financial reporting on different types of industries from Commercial Real Estate, Food Service, and Construction Industry and have served on company conversion teams on company acquisitions. I enjoy process improvement and experimenting with new ways of improving a process.
