KPMG Foundation Minority Accounting Doctoral Scholarship Program 2011-2016

Business with specialization in Accounting PhD Candidate


I am currently in my first year of the PhD in Business program at Drexel University. My field of study is Accounting and my specific interests relate to behavioral research in the area of managerial accounting. Prior to studying at Drexel, I worked for several years in banking for such companies as GE Money Bank and Bank of America. I am currently a graduate assistant for Dr. Bernhard Reichert, with whom I am working on projects related to honesty and feedback delivery in an organizational context. My other research interests include accounting fraud, managerial judgment and decision-making, and budgeting. I am grateful to the KPMG Foundation for the financial resources and networking opportunities which accompany their support of my studies.
