Q&A

  • Q: What made you switch from Assurance to Advisory?

    A: I learned about Advisory through browsing on the website and talking to human resources. I’m grateful that I didn’t have to look outside of PwC to find other opportunities.

  • Q: Tell us about your experience with networking at PwC.

    A: When I transitioned into Advisory, I had to start networking again with new partners/principals and new directors. I would go to their offices and introduce myself and let them know what my skillset was. I felt like I built a new network and was able to hit the ground running.

  • Q: How did you balance work and getting your MBA?

    A: I did the MBA program at Northwestern part-time while balancing work and it was very intense. My work and personal activities didn’t stop so I had to learn to balance and prioritize. I also met a lot of people networking while in the program.

  • Q: Are you involved in anything outside of work?

    A: I started a foundation with a colleague of mine. I think the work at PwC forces you to go beyond your boundaries and really accomplish a goal you may have been thinking about for a while. There’s definitely an entrepreneurial spirit here.
