Thoughts:
On Interning
"I interned in Houston and felt very much a part of the team. I had access to everyone - including the partners. Managers would come and talk to us about their line of service, and what distinguished their line of service from the others. It was great exposure, the experience was phenomenal."
On choosing Tax
"I wanted something that required teamwork, while at the same time enabled me to sharpen my individual skills.""
On working with smaller companies
"I wanted both corporate and individual experience. Working with smaller companies, I could see full financial statements and work with corporations, partnerships, and start-up operations."
On teammates
"You give 110%, and you see someone else give 120%. So you get motivated"
On golf
"Golf is like life. Every time you're on the golf course, you learn from your mistakes as you go along."
