My name is Chris Rosales and I am a fifth year finance major at California State Polytechnic University, Pomona. In my five years as a finance student it was easy to get wrapped up in campus life and wait to develop any hands-on finance skills such as budgeting or forecasting. When my school schedule finally opened up, I began my search for an internship. My primary goal was to find an organization that would help me develop my finance and accounting skills.

Tax season is coming to a close with April 15 quickly approaching.
