CEO Corner

Dear Hannah,

I’m thrilled to announce the winners of the MSCPA’s 2020 Women to Watch Awards! The awards recognize outstanding women in the accounting profession and are given in two categories: Emerging Leaders (fewer than 15 years in the profession) and Experienced Leaders (15 or more years in the profession). There were many exceptional nominees this year, making it a very difficult decision for our judging panel. The winners were selected based on their contributions to the profession, their firms/companies and within their communities. 
Congratulations to these exceptional women!
