About Emily Wheeler

I am a graduate of the University at Buffalo, where I graduated with degrees in both Accounting and Psychology, and Villanova University, where I graduated with a Masters in Accounting. I completed my Masters Degree at Villanova University as part of the KPMG Masters in Accounting and Data Analytics (MADA) program. I started my career in Audit in the New York Financial Services office at KPMG where I was promoted to manager. I then switched into Internal Audit and Enterprise Risk advisory services as a manager at KPMG. I continued to grow my Internal Audit skill set as a Senior Audit Manager at Amalgamated Bank and are now applying those skills to a risk mindset as a Risk & Governance Director at NewtekOne.
