Praise for a CPA speaker
“She has a great rapport with the students. They identify well with Eleanor (Eleanor Long, CPA, of Ernst & Young) since she is a ‘local girl’ and started out attending the local community college. This a great selling point and sends a message to the students who are starting their college career, at the community college level, that they, too, can be a success like Eleanor. Thank You.”
