>> Well, I went here to the University of Mississippi,
and one of the reasons why, I was close to home.
I'm from Etta, Mississippi, which is only about 20 miles from the university,
and I noticed that the accounting school was really a good school here.
I talked to one of the professors, Dr. Jimmy Davis, once I took my 201, 202 class,
and he encouraged me to major in accounting.
At first, I was just going to kind of do a general business major, and so he encouraged me,
and then when you saw all the opportunities that you can move into as an accountant
or as in the finance area, not only just doing the detail work but also leadership
and management opportunities, I chose that career.
Right after I graduated, I started with International Paper,
at the Georgetown facility in South Carolina.
It was on the beach.
It's a nice, small-town area, which was really good.
I enjoyed that experience.
Then I've been working.
I moved to Wisconsin, to Green Bay, Wisconsin, and worked with the company there,
but the majority of the time has been in Memphis where I worked with various business groups.
I've between 10 to 12 different positions with the company,
and each position was actually working with the business also, as well as learning more
about the business and the opportunities, and that's been really good.
