many of the best accountants she knows have come from non-traditional backgrounds like dance or philosophy. megan herself worked in theater for several years before she was thrust into a finance role. like her, these non-traditional accountants apply their native curiosity to understand how the pieces fit together. by leaning into the work and asking questions, they uncover an unknown aptitude for accounting, suggesting that perhaps we should hire for curiosity rather than compliance knowledge.
