A note from Josh:
I am a junior at Hope College pursuing a public accounting degree.
This past summer, I took the opportunity to engage in an unpaid internship
at Ameriprise Financial, to broaden my perspective of the financial
markets and its correlation to accounting. I believe this experience
gave me a glimpse of the business world, and only enhanced my desire
to intern at a public accounting firm this coming summer, where I
can apply my skill sets. My expectations relative to the Baker Scholar
program are tailored to test my strength of character, understand
and improve my leadership skills, and develop my relational skills
imperative to effective communication. The enhancement of these qualities
will hopefully facilitate a transformation into a competent businessman
well equipped to one day assume a leadership role.
