When did you decide to go into the accounting field and why? First year into college. I was studying Business Management, and my roommate was majoring in accounting. I found myself helping her get through her first year and realized I really enjoyed it, so I switched my major the following year.
Why did you decide to work in public accounting, rather than private sector? Right out of college I worked for a Tier 1 automotive supplier in their accounting department, but had a significant drive to work. A small CPA firm, closer to home offered me a job. Once I began working with all the different clients and realizing the help and benefit I could offer to multiple clients, I was hooked on Public Accounting.
