Evan Melissa Davis

Administrative Associate

In August 2020, Evan joined CJBS as an administrative assistant. In her position, she also supports various marketing projects for the firm. Before CJBS, Evan worked as a receptionist at a smaller accounting firm in central Illinois.

After graduating with a degree in Human Development & Family Sciences in 2018, Evan decided to pursue a career in administration. Starting a career in a field she did not go to school for motivated her to apply herself in new ways, since then, she has been applying her degree to facilitate growth in organizational environments. Always willing and eager to learn, Evan brings her tech savvy experience to all of her projects. She also appreciates the fact that in the world of accounting, there is a right and wrong way to do something, which leaves little room for confusion. In her previous experience in customer service, Evan also learned that a smile and a positive attitude go a long way.
