Vice Chairman & US Industries and Insights Leader
I lead all of the U.S. industries, development for partners, and all Deloitte research.
Career Roadmap
Day to Day
I travel a few days each week visiting clients or account teams. I focus on developing financial plans / strategies for our largest accounts. I also spend a significant amount of time in succession planning on accounts and partner evaluations and deployment. Finally, I am leading our research agenda from a firm perspective, so we are eminent in that area.
Advice for Getting Started
Here's the first step for college students
I think grit, tenacity, and hard work is key. Get a good foundational education with a college degree and strive for excellence in your grades. Auditing is the foundation of business. Once you understand auditing, you understand almost everything within the business realm, so start with that.
