Marian Millikan
I have been blessed to have lived in places such as Fiji, South Korea, Japan, Hong Kong, Germany, and the US where I graduated from Virginia Tech. Growing up my dream job was to become a vacation tester, but somehow found my calling as a CPA. To pay homage to my past dreams I love traveling and enjoying taking trips with my family whenever we can find the time. I currently live in Midlothian with my husband Ian, two children Sophia and Braden, and two Italian greyhounds Lincoln and Beamer.
