Christy joined Melton & Melton in 2009 and works primarily on audits of privately-held companies in the construction, service, non-profit, and real estate industries, as well as public and privately-held employee benefit plan audits. Her experience helps clients navigate complex financial reporting requirements and employee benefit plan compliance.

Christy graduated from Stephen F. Austin State University in 2009 with a Bachelor of Business Administration in Accounting and a Masters of Professional Accountancy. Though she originally set out to pursue a degree in computer science, she decided to switch her course of study to accounting. While her work still had her interacting with technical concepts, she found that accounting aligned more naturally with her strengths, particularly her aptitude for numbers and mathematics.

Christy is an active member of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, the Texas Society of Certified Public Accountants, and the Houston Chapter of the Texas Society of Certified Public Accountants. She remains closely connected to SFA through the alumni association and her Panhellenic sorority alumnae group. Her college years there were especially meaningful, as SFA is also where she met her husband.

Born and raised in Houston, Christy continues to call the city home with her husband and their three children. In her free time, she can often be found attending her children’s various sports activities, gardening, baking, and tackling DIY projects around the house.
