Bio
Toni Stephens
Cara worked in our office as an internal audit intern during the summer of 2016. She was a great team player, very analytical, and always personable. She works hard and is very conscientious. I am happy to recommend Cara!
Mary King, CPA
Cara demonstrates strong professional, communication, and interpersonal skills in connecting with others. As her faculty advisor for her role as the Marketing Committee Chair of Accounting Leadership Association, I’ve been very encouraged to see her take initiative in planning and hosting various professional events, which had great turnouts and increased membership. Since she started the MS Accounting program, she has demonstrated strong leadership and teamwork skills in serving other students both on campus as well as through community service, including the VITA program. Despite her busy schedule, she has done a great job balancing her academics, leadership activities, as well as her on campus job in the Internal Audit department. I really appreciate her positive attitude, hard work, responsibility, and kindness in volunteering to help others, and know she will bring much value and joy to any team.
