Katie Patton

Senior Tax Manager

How I help . . .

My super power is solving problems in my sleep. I have a habit of taking some complex scenarios that keep me up at night, and I find solutions and a path forward in my sleep. Sometimes taking a step back from the screen and technical research can help clear your mind and solve problems.
