**Where did you go to college?**  
I attended University of South Carolina.

**What year did you join Scott and Company? **  
I joined Scott and Company as an intern in January 2018.  I became a full-time team member in the firm’s Assurance and Advisory practice in December 2018

**Why did you choose Scott and Company?**  
I was drawn to the work culture; the partners always have an open door for anything we need, there is a great work-life balance, and half-day summer Fridays aren’t too bad either.

**Give a** summary of background work experience and tell about your current responsibilities at the firm.  
I am currently an in-charge.  Within the past couple of months, I have been given more responsibilities which include supervising/training new staff members and I also have a bigger part in getting engagements started and planning the audit strategy.

**What do you enjoy most about living in Columbia?**  
As an alumnus of the University of South Carolina, it is fun to still be able to attend sporting events. 

**If you could go back in time, what event would you want to attend in person?**    
Super Bowl 3.  The one and only Super Bowl for the New York Jets.

**What interesting fact would you most like your readers to know about you?**  
I played on the Ultimate Frisbee team while attending the University of South Carolina.
