Employee Spotlight is a blog series meant to offer an inside look at our company culture and, most importantly, highlight the talented individuals who help make our company so special. From accountants and software implementation specialists to operations, marketing, and HR professionals, get to know the people behind Chazin & Company.
Today, we are getting to know Linda Manco, one of our talented Senior Accountants. Linda is based out of Virginia and has been with Chazin & Company since 2020. Let's learn more about her:
1. What's your role at Chazin & Company?
I am a Senior Accountant at Chazin & Company, providing everything from daily entry of my clients’ activities, to creating financial reports for Board Management. My clients range in their size and in their missions and I truly enjoy working with all of them.
2. What's the most rewarding part about your job?
I have a strong passion for nonprofits, especially those with humanitarian and environmental missions. I am so happy to be able to help my clients fulfill their missions, even if it is behind the scenes. It is nice to be able to contribute in some way.
3. What do you enjoy doing in your free time?
I love being outdoors and enjoy hiking and paddle boarding. I have a Chocolate Lab that keeps me out on the trails in my neighborhood. I also love to travel. I am always up for a new adventure!
4. What's your favorite volunteer activity?
With the pandemic, I haven’t done any volunteer work for a while. My husband and I moved to Northern Virginia in 2019, and I am looking for an opportunity to volunteer. I have discovered a group that provides food and snacks to middle and high schoolers who are in need, and I look forward to getting involved this fall. While living in Kansas City I did a lot of Civic volunteering. My favorite group was the American Royal, a horse show, rodeo and livestock show. I loved giving school tours.
5. Please share any exciting news or a fun fact about yourself:
Fun Fact: My husband and I both grew up in Kansas City and lived there until just a few years ago. We spent our honeymoon in Washington, DC. Little did we know our daughter would end up living here, and that we would end up moving here some 30 years later!
