My favorite Walker College memory is… 
My favorite memory was taking Individual 1040 tax as a summer class in 2017, because it helped lead me to the field of accounting that I am passionate about. While the class itself was difficult and required a lot of study and dedication, it was ultimately the class that likely shaped the rest of my career.

My favorite Walker College memory is travelling to Brazil to study business, society, and sustainability with Dr. Meznar. It opened my eyes on how cultural norms and a country's geography can change the business landscape dramatically from what we are used to.

My favorite Walker College memory is… 
I remember dreading one of the required business law classes. Ironically, that class turned out to be my favorite class in the entire program. My professor was a dynamic speaker with lots of real world examples. I looked forward to each class and was sad when it was over. I still use a few of his examples regularly as I am mentoring new staff.

My favorite Walker College memory is... 
spending time with my advisor going over all the different options I had! I know that might sound strange, but thinking about sitting in Ms. Church-Pipes office and seeing all the great opportunities I could choose from makes me incredibly grateful for how much she cared for her students and how many doors the Walker College of Business could open for me!
