3. Introduction
I am a student at Northwood University, I have been
auditing municipalities and school districts for the last three
years. As of recently, I am the current Treasurer/Secretary
of Life Choices Resource Center in which I perform all the
accounting and finance responsibilities for the non-profit
organization while being an active member of the Board.
For the next step in my career, I would like to find myself
working for a medium to large size corporation forecasting
budgets and implementing new ideas to keep costs down
and increase profits. As the world keeps advancing, let it be
through technology, or education and certifications, it
would be life changing if I could move my efforts in
becoming a leader in your finance department and company.
