I work as an associate in international tax at KPMG, where I'm approaching my first year in the profession. My typical day involves a lot of communication and coordination across multiple teams - working with clients, our U.S. teams, and member firms around the world like Argentina and Ireland. It's a lot of form preparation and understanding what clients need from us, then communicating with the member firms about how we can help them further along with their clients. The work is pretty interesting because there are so many channels of communication going on at once. This past winter, I took advantage of an opportunity to do a rotation in advisory with an international client, which taught me a lot and even gave me the chance to travel to the client's U.S. branches. I'm grateful that KPMG really supports volunteering efforts, which allows me to continue my work with the University of Kentucky men's hockey team, where I've volunteered 250 hours this past year. I'm also involved in KPMG's business groups and have achieved the highest level in our culture, diversity, equity and inclusion initiatives - they call it culture legend. I'm excited to continue learning and growing, and I hope to one day travel internationally to meet clients and deepen my network.
