Lexi Neely
President
My name is Lexi Neely and I am the President of the Institute of Management Accounts Student Chapter here at USC. I am a junior accounting major and will be graduating with my undergraduate in May of 2021. I plan on going to graduate school to get my Masters in Accounting and to take the Certified Management Accountant exam and possibly the Certified Public Accountant exam. Starting this chapter back up has been one of my biggest accomplishments in my 3 years of being at USC and i’m excited for the future of this group. I am an open book and willing to listen and answer any concerns or questions you may have about joining our organization!

Jake Birkmaier
Vice President
I am a sophomore double major in finance and accounting with a minor in applied computing. Although I do not plan on working in the Accounting field, I see a large value in thoroughly understanding accounting concepts and practices. I put a large emphasis on recruitment for the IMA and hope to help it grow during my time on exec board. I hope to continue gaining experience leading teams and have already benefited from public speaking opportunities the IMA has presented me with. I am here to help all of our members grow in any way possible.

Patrick Curley
Treasurer
I am a double major in finance and accounting with aspirations of working in asset management. Having little skill or opportunity to make friends otherwise, I joined the IMA with the hopes of finding a sense of community. The satisfaction I get from being trusted with something is immeasurable. Never in my life have I been given such a massive responsibility than being the treasurer of this organization. A cornerstone of my life, the IMA is a driving force for me to get out of bed in the morning as I am given the opportunity to finally contribute to something. Please join the IMA so we can be friends! See you soon!! feel free to email me even just to chat!!

Kate Stinson
Co-Secretary
I am so thrilled to be the Co-Secretary of the IMA student chapter. Within the short period that I have occupied the position, I have met so many amazing leaders and cannot wait to learn and grow alongside them. I chose this position because I am an organized person, and I enjoy getting to meet new members. My hope for the IMA chapter is to grow into something that allows for networking opportunities, the ability to meet peers in your same classes, and that the chapter will become something bigger than it once was. This semester I am looking forward to working with an amazing team to establish and lay the groundwork for the future semesters.
