Patricia Stover was promoted to Manager at Vicenti, Lloyd & Stutzman in 2010.

Patricia has an entrepreneurial spirit that is demonstrated in not only her professional life but also her personal life. Patricia works side by side with owners of closely held businesses in helping them with tax preparation, interim controllerships, and other business endeavors. In this capacity, Patricia enjoys seeing her clients grow in developing their own businesses.

"One thing I love most about my firm is that we give back to the community in various ways including food drives, clothing drives and participation in various fund raising activities," Patricia said. Working with the Financial Literacy program offered through California Society of Public Accountants, Patricia has led several financial literacy workshops in Riverside and at high schools in the Pomona area. This commitment of giving back to the community supports her strong desire to help people.

Patricia finds the flexible atmosphere at VLS allows her to enjoy a healthy work/life balance. That’s not to say that her time away from work is idle relaxation. A quote from Pat Riley explains her philosophy for this balance: "There are only two options regarding commitment. You're either IN or you're OUT. There's no such thing as life in-between." Patricia is always willing to be involved and is not afraid to take the lead. She is responsible, committed and takes ownership of what she produces. Patricia is active in her church as the treasurer and a teacher in the youth ministry. She also enjoys different sporting activities and has recently taken up snowboarding. After one lesson she said, "I now have a desire to be a pro!"

When training less experienced staff, Patricia raises energy with a rousing cheer that encapsulates her approach to life whether at work, in the community or at play: TO BE ENTHUSIASTIC, YOU HAVE TO ACT ENTHUSIASTIC!” That’s Patricia!
