My Best Advice

“Be nice”

(Advice from Nan’s sister that has served her well through all aspects of life)

Nancy Thompson, CPA, CCIFP, CGMA

Principal

with JVTR since 1998

Meet Nan, an eternal optimist, golfer, gardener, coffee roaster and world traveler. Growing up in Southwest Michigan, she attended Parchment schools from preschool through high school and stayed local as a Bronco at Western Michigan University.  

Nan’s favorite part about her job is working with a wonderful, diverse group of people—whether they’re clients, co-workers, industry colleagues or members of the community. To maintain focus and stamina during tax time, she is energized by the “thrill” of the season (and a fair amount of coffee). When she’s not at the office, you’ll find Nan hosting gatherings for family and friends, cheering on the Detroit Lions (remember, she’s an eternal optimist), golfing with husband Bob, walking around the farm with their bloodhounds Buck and Tanner or traveling to her hands-down most beloved place to visit—Italy.
