What do you love about Becker?
"I work with a great team. I enjoy the work I do."
What would you tell an accounting student today?
"Accounting is a great field with many opportunities. Study hard, try to get an internship, and build your resume while in school, but enjoy your time in college too. Do a study abroad if you can. It will broaden your horizons. Don't take all your classes online. Take some classes in person so you can meet your classmates and professors. Don't forget about the soft skills. Take classes in leadership, public speaking, and written communication. If you have time, learn another language. Don't be afraid to challenge yourself."
Becker fun fact
"I like to start my mornings in the home gym. I enjoy outdoor activities: bodysurfing, sand volleyball, cycling, hiking."
