Accountant  

“I grew up in Huntly. Coming from a lower socioeconomic area can come with some stigma about your abilities, but I’ve always been determined to rise above that. While finishing school, I applied for the KPMG School Leaver programme. Accounting was my favourite subject at school. While I didn’t know exactly what I wanted to do, it seemed like a good option for me. I now work full-time while studying towards the Bachelor of Applied Management in Accounting (CAANZ). Wintec was a logical choice for me.  Sometimes balancing work and study can be overwhelming, but I keep my eye on the future – I want to be the CFO of a or large multinational or a partner in a leading accountancy firm, and I am determined to fulfil my goals.”
