As a native New Yorker, I attended NYU where I majored in Economics and a double minored in Business Studies and Hebrew & Judaic Studies. I discovered a passion for accounting after taking Principles of Financial Accounting my Sophomore year. I learned how essential it is to have a background in accounting as it provides a significant foundation for all aspects of business. In deciding which Masters program I would attend, I looked into schools around metropolitan southern California, one of the world's largest hubs of technology, entertainment, and communications. I decided to pursue my MAcc at the Leventhal School of Accounting for its prestigious faculty and staff. USC is the prime vehicle for building relationships and close connections to powerful individuals and institutions in the Pacific Rim. As an undergraduate student, I never truly experienced having a college campus with a community feeling. I knew that USC would provide me with a feeling of belonging and I am honored to be a part of the Trojan family. Please feel free to contact me should you have any questions throughout your decision making process!
