Nicole Garnett

Nicole has been part of Puryear & Noonan CPAs since 2008, bringing more than 17 years of office administration and management experience to the team. With a background in both law and business, she seamlessly transitioned from a legal assistant role into the accounting world, where she has flourished for nearly two decades. She studied Business Administration at the University of Phoenix and holds an A.S. in Paralegal Studies from Everest University.

At P&N, Nicole values the firm’s core values and family-first culture, which she believes sets it apart from other workplaces. She loves building trust with clients—especially those who return year after year for their tax needs—and is energized by the relationships she has built over time.

Originally from Georgia, Nicole moved to Tennessee in 1999, where she has raised her two children. Outside of work, she is passionate about music and creativity. A singer-songwriter and performer, she also enjoys live music, sewing, crafting, painting, and spending time with her family. Her mix of professional expertise, client focus, and creative spirit makes her a vital part of the P&N team.
