I remember growing up in the small town of Victoria, Mississippi, where my grandfather was a teacher, coach, business owner and tax preparer within my community.
My first time hearing about accounting was in high school when a few of my white friends took an accounting course. The first accountant I knew was the teacher who taught the course who was also white. I thought to myself that this course and career was not for me. After all, I had dreamed that when I grow up I would be a doctor. Normally, most children would hear people tell them to be a doctor, a lawyer, or a teacher but I never heard to "be an accountant" as a child.
