In my second year of graduate school at The Ohio State University, I was selected to present at the Annual Convention in Las Vegas. It was a thrilling experience and helped give me confidence to move forward with my job hunt. Immediately after landing in Columbus, Ohio, from that trip, I ran to my final interview for my current job. I believe that my success and amazing experience at Convention (as a participant and presenter) helped me ace my interview!

I had also presented earlier that year at LEI and the Ohio CPA conference and plan on submitting more proposals this year about some exciting things happening this year at OSU. I owe so much of where I am today to my experiences in the last three years with ACPA, and I can't wait to continue to get involved as my career continues. What an amazing welcome to this wonderful field of study!
