Dear Hannah,
I'm thrilled to announce the recipients of the 2016 MSCPA Women to Watch Awards! With many deserving nominations,
the selection panel was flooded with remarkable success stories, and narrowing the nominations down to just six winners was certainly a difficult job.
In the end, winners were selected based on a mix of their leadership in their organizations, mentorship, contributions to their communities, as well
as their dedication to promoting women’s leadership in the accounting profession. Congratulations to this year’s winners:
