Congratulations

Congratulations to Elia, one of our accountants, for completing her master's degree in accounting! She completed a two year degree in one year from American Intercontinental University online.
She is amazing! She is a single mother of two young girls, and has a full time job, but she had the determination to complete her degree. She said the program was intense, but she learned a lot and had a great experience. It opened her mind to new ideas and possibilities. The hardest part was not being able to spend much time with her daughters.
"It seemed impossible, but I knew if I put my heart into it, it would be possible," she said.
Elia also has a degree in elementarty education from Boise State University. She taught first grade for two years in Salt Lake City, Utah.
