From Greenwich, NY
My name is Rachel Albrecht and I'm from the small town of Greenwich in upstate NY. I am currently a rising senior at the University of Delaware, pursuing a Bachelor of Science degree in Accounting and a minor in International Business. I anticipate graduating in May of 2016 after completing the 150 credit hour requirement to sit for the CPA exam. I am a hard-working, driven student aiming to become a CPA and venture into the business world with a career in accounting. I have accumulated valuable leadership, analytical, and problem-solving skills throughout my schooling and experiences that I am excited to apply to future opportunities in the business world. Aside from school, I enjoy spending time with my family and friends, running and training for half-marathons, going to concerts, coaching Little League softball, and traveling to new places.
