I graduated in 2021 with my Bachelors in Business Administration with a specialty in Accounting and a minor in Cultural Anthropology.
Prior to graduation, I worked in banking for three years and public practice accounting for two years where I experienced a large range of clientele from different industries.
In addition, I was a Controller for a large, multi-disciplinary medical clinic for one year.
I look forward to starting my Chartered Professional Accountant (CPA) designation in the fall with a multi-national firm.
Moreover, I host free financial literacy workshops at secondary schools in my community which cover topics such as banking, payroll, taxation, and much more.
