I know my path isn’t typical. Most accounting candidates didn’t spend years in pharmacy, but that experience has given me a unique perspective. I’ve worked in high-pressure environments where mistakes aren’t an option, solved problems in real time, and dealt with complex systems long before I ever touched a tax return. I didn’t choose accounting because it was the next logical step—I chose it because I thrive on structure, strategy, and making sense of the chaos. I’ve got the discipline of someone who’s worked in the real world, the adaptability of someone who’s changed careers, and the drive of someone who’s here to prove they belong. If you’re looking for a candidate who colors inside the lines, there are plenty of those out there. If you’re looking for someone who’s sharp, adaptable, and ready to bring a fresh perspective to the team, I'd love the opportunity to contribute. Professional Summary: I am an aspiring accounting professional currently completing prerequisite courses at Clemson University to prepare for the Master of Professional Accountancy degree program and the CPA exam beginning August 2025. My background in pharmacy instilled a strong sense of precision and attention to detail, while my business management education provided a solid foundation in financial concepts and introduced me to accounting principles. Through education, work experience, and volunteering, I am building a strong foundation in financial reporting, compliance, and problem-solving to launch a successful career in accounting.
