With his career beginning in the engineering field, Andrew brings a unique perspective into the accounting discipline - If it’s not practical, if it’s not efficient, then there must be a better solution. Specializing in strategy and performance management, Andrew’s experience has ranged from senior management positions to being a university instructor. If Andrew could only impart one lesson to his students, he would say that the strength of the CPA designation depends on them – let’s make this a profession the world esteems.
