About Marwa Alwattar

Hi there! Imagine Accounting as an endless ocean—no matter how far you sail, there\'s always a new island of knowledge to discover! To truly understand the business world, you\'ve got to grasp its language: Accounting. What hooked me is the thrill of constant learning and unearthing fresh mysteries in this field. My journey began with a Bachelor’s degree in Accounting, where I dove into the exciting realms of taxes and audits. But that was just the start! I upgraded to a Master’s in Professional Accounting, where I got to play with data analytics and cutting-edge tech in the world of Audit. The allure of Audit as my chosen path was propelled by my inherent affinity for collaborative teamwork and effective communication—a skill set I\'ve honed through coursework, internships, and interactions with experienced Auditors. A guiding principle I embrace is \"The first step for Self Growth is Self Awareness\"(N. K. Shah), a maxim seamlessly applicable to the business spectrum. This underscores the pivotal role of assurance in elevating enterprises, pinpointing areas for refinement, and illuminating pathways for strategic investments. Currently, I\'m on a quest to conquer the CPA, and I\'ve set sail with the fantastic crew at Moss Adams LLP as a Business Assurance staff. I am proficient in English and Arabic, and currently acquainting myself with Persian. My daily aspiration centers on extending respect, empathy, value, and support to others. If you\'re a fellow adventurer in the seas of Accounting or just love a good nautical analogy, let\'s chart a course to connect!
