Day to Day
Every day is different—which I love! Some days I'm focused on reviewing audit work for my clients, other days I focus on Board meetings and C-level communications and transparency. Many days are filled with talent development and identification and team management. Every day has a different look and feel, which is incredibly engaging and energizing.
Advice for Getting Started
Here's the first step for everyone
Start.….just start. Start with education. Put yourself out there with career fairs. Meet as many people as you can at the accounting firms and in corporate careers. Cast a wide net and figure out what the best fit is for your career. And go for it!
