Inside the Mind Of...
Why do you do what you do?
I like the variety of work in public accounting, and I enjoy working with our clients.
Who is/was the most influential person in your life/career?
My father's former CPA was the most influential person in my career. After high school I went to work for my dad's business as the bookkeeper. His CPA encouraged me to go to college and pursue a degree in accounting. It took me eight long years of going to school at night while I worked full-time during the day, but I finally did it. Without his encouragement, I don't know whether or not I would have pursued my education.
If your child wanted to own his/her own business, what you would tell him/her?
I would encourage her to take some accounting courses in college. Even if a business owner is not going to be actively involved in the accounting function, it is important that she understand the data that the accounting department produces.
