    When she isn’t in the office, you’ll usually find her on the golf course, planning her next vacation, or hanging out with her new niece. An avid golfer, Shannon is always the firm’s pick for entry into any scramble contest.

Clair Johnson - JHA CPA
  • She may be the newest member of the JHA team, but Clair brings over a decade of dedicated experience to the firm. After graduating with a BBA in Accounting, Clair received her CPA license in 2010. While much of her professional experience has been in individual tax, her broad base of knowledge and prior work with corporate filings has quickly made her an integral part of the team.

    A native of the Philippines, Clair has called Texas home for over 20 years. When she's not crushing numbers, she's staying up late to watch Food Network, venturing out to try new restaurants, and working on her status as a connoisseur of ribs. She and her husband have a long list of destinations on their travel bucket list, but when they're home they love cheering on the Texas Rangers!

Rachel Anger - JHA CPA
  • A Nashville native, Rachael joined the JHA team in May of 2018. An honor graduate of Niagara College, she served as the front desk administrator for several years before moving to the back of the house to put her accounting skills to use. In the 4 years she’s been with the firm, Rachael has developed a working relationship with many of our clients, but what they may not know is that Rachael is pursuing a degree in accounting, enjoys photography, and is a First-Degree Black Belt in Taekwondo.

Josephine Bush - JHA CPA
  • Josephine, a loyal resident of DFW, joined JHA in 2022. Her diverse skill set and natural ability to connect with others have allowed her to excel in creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere for clients and visitors at the front desk. Beyond her role, Josephine embraces creative pursuits, approaching them with a commitment to making a positive impact in both her professional and personal endeavors. When out of the office, you can always find her captivated by classic vintage movies or lounging in the park with the latest addition of Vogue.

Haley Patterson - JHA CPA
  • Though she has lived in 7 states before moving to Texas, Haley is happy to call Texas home. She moved to Dallas in 2015 to join the team at Neiman Marcus in Downtown Dallas, but after leaving the world of luxury retail, she joined the firm in 2020. Haley oversees the front office and manages firm development activity. Outside of the office, you’re likely to find her at The Bar Method each morning, driving the mom taxi for her two boys in the afternoons and poolside whenever the weather allows.
