Geni Whitehouse is on a mission to make numbers—and the people behind them—more relatable, impactful, and boldly authentic. A rare blend of CPA, keynote speaker, tech leader, and southern storyteller, she brings insight and energy to every stage she steps on.

As President of the Information Technology Alliance (ITA), Geni unites the brightest minds from Top 100 CPA firms, software publishers, and consulting innovators to spark conversations that shape the future of accounting and technology. She’s also the founder of The Impactful Advisor, helping accountants shift from compliance to confident advisory through storytelling, financial fluency, and heart.

A recovering “nerdy introvert” turned nationally recognized speaker, Geni draws on her own journey—including a pivotal moment teaching PeopleSoft at National Geographic—to help others find their voice and their purpose. Her book, Even a Nerd Can Be Heard, offers 52 ways to make a boring subject interesting, proving that humor and humanity are the ultimate power tools in communication.

Whether she’s consulting with winery owners in Napa Valley or inspiring change in boardrooms across the country, Geni blends metaphor, meaning, and a dash of Basset Hound charm to leave audiences educated, energized, and ready to make an impact.
