I started my accounting career early, as a senior in high school when I had an internship doing taxes, accounts payable, and accounts receivable. I had all my credits done beforehand because I was taking college classes during school, so I got to get a little bit of experience in my field before even going to college. I went to Iowa State for a year, getting my hands dirty with all things accounting and business school. Then I transferred back to Omaha to pursue my dream of giving back to the youth, and I helped jumpstart a volleyball club that's a non-profit here in Omaha. While doing that, I also had an internship through a company that I was working remotely for, and I gained a ton of experience through them. They trusted me with a lot of different things, and I helped create better processes for them that they still use now even though I don't work there anymore. After my internship was up with my graduation in December, I got a job at Kiewit, which is a pretty big company here in Omaha, and I work in audit. I've been conducting a couple different audits through the company. I really feel like I got a ton of my experience and groundwork through my education and my internship years. I learned a lot when I was young, which was super helpful and helped me land a good career path for myself.
