About Minelik Sisay

I currently work in the public accounting field, ultimately gaining experience in auditing insurance and financial services clients. Additionally, I have participated in various human resources activities involving recruiting at a variety of levels. With regards to my accounting credentials, I have completed all four parts CPA exam and am awaiting to complete my required hours to achieve the CPA license in Illinois. Before my life at PwC, I was an undergraduate at the University of Notre Dame (2016) where I studied Political Science and Accounting. I thrive in rapidly growing and innovative organizations. I am passionate about technology and providing the best quality work that adds value. I enjoy the fact that I can wake up everyday and know that I will be challenged in some way to keep me on top of my game. On my free time, I love traveling the world and eating my way through places I visit. I\'m also committed to education and volunteering my time to help individuals/families file tax returns. I have participated in Ladder Up and TAP (both tax assistance programs) and thoroughly enjoyed getting to know people and hearing their story. Gives me a new perspective on life, which I greatly appreciate.
