What inspired you to pursue the CPA career path?
I wanted a profession that consistently provided me with growth opportunities and that empowered me to positively impact my community. This career path aligned with my strengths so I could maximize my contributions to the people around me.
What professional accomplishment are you most proud of?
I am extremely proud to have earned my CPA certificate. It was a rewarding pursuit that supports my overall goal of becoming a trusted advisor. It not only helped me grow my understanding of accounting standards but also my own capabilities and resilience.
What is your next major goal?
My goal, which actually led to my pursuit of CPA licensure, is to become a trusted advisor for my clients. It is exciting when I hear a partner explain a certain course of action that they suggest to their clients, the tax law behind it, and the practical application. I would like to be a part of big decisions. I want to be able to move up in my firm and eventually become a partner, where I can have a more direct impact on my clients’ successes.
What is your favorite thing to do outside of work?
I love spending time outside all throughout the year. When I have time, I enjoy skiing or volleyball, depending on the season. Otherwise, a simple walk around the neighborhood is enough to reinvigorate me.
