Brenda Keomany

Brenda Keomany


Brenda Keomany is living proof that authentic leadership is about rising through difficulty, growing stronger, and helping others do the same.
Over a period of six years, Brenda faced a cascade of profound challenges: she lost her mother-in-law; who was like a mother to her and lived with the family for 19 years, as is customary in her late husband’s Khmu tribe, the passing of her father, and supported her husband through a long illness, ultimately becoming widowed at 46 while raising a teenage daughter.
In the midst of these hardships, Brenda returned to Oregon after being away for 24 years. She left behind her established support network to start over, rebuilding her community from scratch and re-establishing her business in a new landscape. Through each upheaval, Brenda chose resilience, adaptability, and growth over resignation.
Today, as President of Status Accounting, LLC, Brenda does more than manage numbers. She and her team partner with clients to create practical workflows and accounting systems that tell the story of their businesses, empowering them to use financial insights for stronger and more strategic decisions. Brenda believes accounting is not just about compliance but about clarity and opportunity.
What sets Brenda apart is her ability to turn adversity into empathy and deep expertise. She guides her family, her team, and her clients through change, complexity, and opportunity, while never losing sight of the importance of community and connection.
Brenda’s talks go beyond inspiration. She offers actionable guidance on building resilience and forging genuine connections, even when rebuilding from the ground up. When you hear Brenda speak, you experience wisdom forged in real life, with practical lessons any business or team can use to thrive, no matter the circumstances.
Listen to Brenda for genuine insight, hard-won resilience, and practical know-how your business can put to use wherever your next chapter begins.

Manali Bapat

Manali Bapat

Hello! I'm Manali Bapat, a Product Designer, currently working at Mindtickle, designing the future of Asset Hub. My journey in product design has been an exhilarating ride, fueled by curiosity and a passion for creating things.

🚀 Experience: My journey till now has taken me through different teams and organizations, with a comprehensive experience of 3+ years, allowing me to gain valuable insights into B2B Product Design, User Research, Design Systems and Visual Design.
Currently, I'm making waves as a Product Designer at Mindtickle. Here, I've spearheaded impactful revamp projects, breathing new life into Manager Reports and enhancing user experience across the board. I delved into various design directions, creating screen mockups that breathed life into page widgets and conducting in-depth comparative analyses. My collaborative spirit shines as I work closely with cross-functional teams, weaving together innovative solutions that resonate with our users. At the recent Data Carnival Hackathon, I served as a Product Desig SME, translating conceptual visions into compelling designs.
During my stint as a Product Design Intern at Tekion Corp, I played a pivotal role in crafting a comprehensive design system for iPadOS, seamlessly integrating user feedback to deliver an immersive application experience. During my previous tenure at Maruti Suzuki, I got an exciting opportunity to work in a new domain and design for Car Interface. My active participation in the iterative design and user research helped me excel at these skills. Regular feedback and presentations with overseas teams enabled me to be a better presenter and communicator.

🎓 Education: Armed with a Master's in Design from the prestigious Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Hyderabad, I honed my skills in crafting immersive user experiences. My Bachelor's in Architecture from Savitribai Phule Pune University laid a solid foundation for my design journey, instilling in me a keen eye for detail and a passion for storytelling through design.

💼 Previous Endeavors: My design journey commenced during my Architecture studies (B. Arch), where my mentor exposed me to diverse design domains. Keen to delve deeper into design, I joined Design Consultants Architects LLP, leading projects ranging from Website and Social Media design to Product Design innovation. Collaborating closely with the founder imparted insights into crucial business elements such as team-building and leadership.

Let's connect! I'm open to networking and exploring potential collaborations. I am reachable at manalibapat01@gmail.com
