Meet The Team: Nick R.
BACKGROUND WITH CAREER:
"I graduated from Western New England University in 2014 with a major in accounting. While working as a valet attendant part-time during college, I applied for an open accounting internship within the company. I was lucky enough to get the internship during my senior year in college and, upon graduation, I accepted a full-time position in their auditing department.
Later in 2014, I accepted a position as Accounting Specialist with The Walker Group. Now being with the company for over 5 years and moving up to the Controller, I am excited to see what the future holds. "
MOST IMPORTANT THING ABOUT YOUR JOB:
"The most important thing about my job is to ensure that the company is both staying financially healthy and sustainable for a successful future."
FAVORITE TECH DEVICE AND WHY?
"My favorite device for a while now has been my iPhone. I love the fact that I always can have access to it and everything in the world can be right at your fingertips."
WHAT WOULD YOUR SUPERPOWER BE?
"To teleport to different places all over the world."
HOW HAS YOUR LIFE CHANGED
DURING THE PANDEMIC?
"This global pandemic has been able to make me (like so many people out there) realize that family is the most important thing in life. Now I have the opportunity to go for a walk during lunch with the kids or just say hi to them while filling up my morning coffee."
FUN FACTS:
"I have been together with my wife, Jacqueline, for over 12 years. We started dating when she was a freshman in high school and I was a sophomore. We have now been married going on 5 years."
"Jacqueline and I have a 2-year-old daughter (Amelia) and a 7-month-old son (Liam). We have two dogs named Mazie (6 years) and Khaleesi (5 years)."
"When I have the free time, my favorite hobby is golfing. I was fortunate enough to play Pebble Beach in California a few years ago and I am still in awe."
"I love watching all different kinds of sports. My favorite teams are the New York Yankees and the Philadelphia Eagles."
"I knew that I wanted to be an accountant after taking a high school class during my senior year at Xavier High School."
"My wife and I love to travel the world whenever we get the chance. Our favorite places to go are the Caribbean (St. Thomas) and Disney World. "
WE ARE PROUD TO BE
