Wichita, United States - August 21, 2023 /PressCable/ —

Net Pay Advance, a leading player in the financial services industry, is thrilled to announce the addition of Josh Dennis to its executive team as the Vice President of Finance and Accounting. With an impressive track record spanning both accounting and finance, Dennis brings an array of knowledge and innovative thinking to his new role.

Prior to joining Net Pay Advance, Dennis held progressive positions at esteemed institutions Grant Thornton LLP, Spirit AeroSystems, and CURO Financial Technologies. His journey within CURO Financial Technologies provided him with invaluable insights and growth opportunities. There, he started as a Senior Analyst and rose to senior management and eventually a directorial role. The growth that he relished makes it clear that he is well-poised to take on the role of Vice President of Finance and Accounting at Net Pay Advance.

“Josh’s expertise and mindset perfectly align with our commitment to driving excellence in financial strategy,” says company president, Brian Staver.

From an early age, Dennis knew where his interests lay. His fascination in accounting began during high school, and from there, he was driven to pursue degrees in both accounting and finance. Armed with a bachelor's degree in both accounting and finance from Wichita State University, Dennis embarked on a journey that would see him achieve success in both disciplines.

Dennis’ career journey has been nothing short of dynamic, encompassing a blend of accounting and finance roles that have honed his expertise in both fields. His work ethic and dedication have always shone through, and this commitment was evident when he undertook the challenging task of earning his CPA certification while working full-time. The accomplishment of passing the CPA exam, undertaken during his tenure at Grant Thornton LLP, stands as a testament to his dedication and tenacity.

Dennis’ decision to join Net Pay Advance was fueled by a combination of factors. His enthusiasm for working in both accounting and finance spheres found a perfect match in the role's requirements. Furthermore, the company's ongoing growth trajectory resonated with Dennis, and he was eager to contribute to its continued success.

In his new capacity, Dennis is already making waves with his forward-thinking approach. He is committed to streamlining the accounting process by implementing innovative ideas that reduce administrative tasks, thus enabling the team to focus on more strategic initiatives. While acknowledging the department's effective structure, Dennis aims to take it to the next level by infusing modern practices and approaches.

One of Dennis’ key initiatives is the development of enhanced forecasting models that align with the company's future goals over the next four to twelve months. This approach to forecasting is a crucial step forward for the company, aligning it with industry best practices. By leveraging Dennis’ expertise, Net Pay Advance aims to enhance its ability to anticipate market trends and make informed strategic decisions.

Director of Marketing Ariel Westphal explains, “His track record of success and dedication to his craft make him an invaluable addition to the Net Pay Advance leadership team. We are confident that Josh's contributions will play a pivotal role in advancing our financial functions and propelling us to new heights."

Dennis’ contributions also extend to the crucial area of cash flow management, a particularly essential aspect for a lending-focused business like Net Pay Advance. His expertise in tracking and analyzing cash flow will play a pivotal role in optimizing financial operations and ensuring the company's continued stability and growth.

Reflecting on his career journey, Dennis emphasizes the importance of effectively conveying a company's financial story. He notes that the process of forecasting and financial analysis requires meticulous attention to detail. However, the ultimate success lies in presenting complex data in a digestible and coherent manner.

Dennis shares the analogy, “A restaurant owner doesn’t need to know every detail of how the meal is made. They need a skilled chef who can ensure the food is prepared well. The owner wants to know the chef can plate the food in a presentable way.” He continues to explain that forecasting operates in a similar fashion. Meticulous work is put into the creation, yet the crux is in the ability to present information clearly using an easy-to-understand story.

Dennis’ emphasis on clear and concise communication via story aligns seamlessly with Net Pay Advance's vision of building its own brand story.

The appointment of Josh Dennis as Vice President of Finance and Accounting underscores Net Pay Advance's commitment to excellence and innovation. With his well-rounded expertise and visionary approach, Dennis is poised to steer the financial and accounting functions to new heights, contributing significantly to the company's ongoing success.

Net Pay Advance is a prominent player in the financial services sector, offering innovative solutions that empower individuals to meet their financial needs. With a commitment to customer service and industry-leading practices, Net Pay Advance continues to be a trusted partner for those seeking reliable financial support.

This is not to suggest that dumplings travelled directly from China to Poland. One theory posits that dumpling-like foods – from Nepalese momo and Central Asian and...

How much sex should a couple have? Focus on quality over quantity, experts say

Recently, an acquaintance told me about her brother’s marriage break-up. “They had sex once in eight years,” she said – as if that were the sole reason. It would not have been: the couple’s collapsing relationship was the reason. The absence of sex – except for that single occasion in eight years – was a symptom that likely made it worse. It raises the question, though: is there a sweet spot for sex in a relationship? How many times a week or a month should we be “doing it” to keep a...

MakatiMed adds Ultherapy Prime to its wellness roster

Makati Medical Center’s Skin and Laser Hub is adding Ultherapy Prime to its aesthetic services, the latest evolution of its noninvasive lifting technology, offering patients a personalized approach to skin tightening. Launched Sept. 10 at the MakatiMed WellnessHub, the new treatment builds on the hospital’s longstanding experience in laser and aesthetic medicine. The launch brought together members of the medical community and guests, with actress and former Miss World Megan Young and actor, entrepreneur and content creator Mikael Daez introduced as Ultherapy Prime ambassadors. For Dr. Ma. Lourdes Aragon de Veyra, head of the Skin and Laser Hub, the arrival of Ultherapy Prime represents another step in the development of ultrasound technology, which has been used in medicine for decades. De Veyra traced ultrasound’s history from its early use in medical imaging to applications that harnessed its biological effects. “In 2000, they started harnessing the potential of this ultrasound by actually causing it to be micro-focused. With the use of this micro-focused ultrasound, it has been used to actually tighten the skin to create a thermal damage to the skin so that it can cause healing. With healing comes the formation of new collagen tissues and renewal of the cells,” De Veyra said. The treatment targets the subdermis and SMAS, or superficial muscular aponeurotic system, while delivering energy at targeted depths. She said the technology can reach temperatures of about 60 to 70 degrees without damaging the surface of the skin. Still themselves While technological advancement is central to Ultherapy Prime, De Veyra said the objective of aesthetic treatment should remain grounded in helping patients look like themselves. “We’ve talked about the science, the technology, and the precision behind Ultherapy Prime. Ultimately, people want the treatment where they will still look like themselves and not look like somebody else,” she said. She said responsible aesthetic care should focus on preserving a patient’s individuality rather than creating a dramatically different appearance. “The goal of responsible doctors is to make our patients feel confident about how they are, how they look. You can probably refine it a little bit, but in the end, our goal is to make our patients flaunt their uniqueness, how they look but with la little twitch. That’s it,” De Veyra said. Endorses on self care Celebrity couple Young and Daez brought a personal perspective to the launch as the new ambassadors of Ultherapy Prime. For Young, beauty has always been closely associated with character and confidence. The former Miss World, who won the title in 2013, said her perspective has remained consistent through the years. “I guess throughout the years, even when I was younger, beauty comes from within. Once you have that beautiful personality or that beautiful heart, then of course, that shines outward,” Young said. She said her view of beauty has evolved around maintaining her appearance while keeping her skincare routine manageable. Daez said he and Young approach self-care as something that encompasses more than physical appearance. “Megan and I have always had this mindset of taking care of ourselves holistically, so emotionally, physically. It’s also about taking care of the way that we look,” Daez said. “Part of that is also feeling good and looking as great as you can. So that’s why we’re here,” he added. The couple also shared how they came to try Ultherapy. Daez admitted that he was the one who initially suggested exploring the treatment. “I’m also the one always looking out. What are the things that we can do? I mean, working out, running, getting good sleep,” Daez said. “We came across Ulthera and we decided to ask about it. We felt that it fit what we wanted so we tried it out,” he added. With Ultherapy Prime now part of its aesthetic offerings, MakatiMed’s Skin and Laser Hub continues to combine medical innovation with patient-centered care, giving patients another option for achieving subtle lifting and tightening without surgery.

Stand out and proud in customized denim

Customizing a garment or any pre-made item can be as simple as using a waterproof marker to write one’s name or initials on it. It’s a way to stand out from the crowd even if doing so might come across as rebellious, defiant. At the newly opened Levi’s store in Greenbelt 5, customization gives customers a creative way to express themselves. This is instantly apparent upon entering as the penned-in work area, Levi’s Tailor Shop, is positioned at the middle of the store. “This flagship store represents a major milestone for the brand as it is the first with this concept in the region, and only the second in Asia after the one in Sapporo, Japan,” said Louella Scott, general manager of Vogue Concepts. As the distributor’s largest store, it carries many of the denim brand’s styles including the more premium ones. “We have the ‘Made in Japan’ Blue Tab line as well as Levi’s Vintage Clothing. There are also shrink-to-fit options that conform to the wearer’s body after soaking, ensuring a truly personalized fit,” Scott said. The literal core of the store, however, is the Levi’s Tailor Shop, where customers can have their denim customized to their specifications. A range of patches is available, including site-specific designs such as a jeepney with a Greenbelt Makati signboard, the tree-lined corner of De la Rosa and Legazpi streets, and a scene inspired by one of the city’s Sunday markets. There are other ways to personalize one’s denim at the store including distressing certain portions of the fabric. “We offer embroidery services and even paint some pieces by hand,” Scott said. The store also has an ace up its denim sleeve in master tailor Tristan Rimorin, who is recognized for his artistry in customization. For him, customizing clothing goes beyond embellishment. “We do a lot of garment resizing such as reshaping a loose-fitting 578 to a slim 511 while preserving the seams and structural balance,” Rimorin said. He and another tailor focus on tapering and managing waistlines to maintain comfort without altering essential proportions. This approach is especially valuable for clients who want to update well-loved garments for a more modern fit. “Our primary goal is to provide solutions for customers, including those who have owned items for many years but have outgrown them,” Rimorin said. Rimorin also gets to indulge in and show off his creative side with clients who want one-of-a-kind items. “I’ve fused two denim pieces into one, and combined patches and distressing for a really well-worn pair of jeans. I also worked with a painter on a denim jacket that features a winged angel with the wings made of distressed denim fabric,” Rimorin said. When he used to place some of the items he had worked with on display, people would come and in and offer to buy them. Rimorin had to tell them that these were already owned by clients who had come to him for customization. “I add that they can purchase new items at the store and that I can work with them on customizing the pieces for a fee,” he said.
