Her Story
About Reina
My name is Reina Tetteh. Your passionate storyteller, student leader, and aspiring CPA with roots that span two nations and two flags: Ghana 🇬🇭 and the United States 🇺🇸.
🎓Currently, I’m pursuing a Bachelor’s degree in Accounting with a double minor in Business Administration and University Honors at Middle Tennessee State University. My academic journey is fueled by curiosity, a love for learning, and a strong commitment to growth and excellence.
🖋️ Writing is my gift and my calling. From poetry to panels, fiction to formal reports, I write everything and anything. I’ve served as an executive of The Writing Spree Club for five years and previously worked at Ingram Content Group,a book company, fittingly enough. It’s no coincidence that storytelling runs through my veins.
🎙️ Leadership is my platform. As a Senator of the 88th Congress of MTSU’s Student Government Association, I strive to be a voice for students on the floor, on stage, or in interviews. Whether I’m hosting or being hosted, I show up with purpose.
💼 Vision meets drive. I’m on a clear path toward a Certified Public Accountant(CPA) certification, with a passion for translating my talents into professional excellence. My work ethic is defined by consistency, reflection, and transformation.
