Active engagement in TXCPA and our chapters can lead to leadership opportunities and open doors to relationships that are valuable at every stage of your career.

I was excited to get involved in my local chapter and give back to the community. I actively participated in events and the chapter followed up with lots of opportunities for me to serve and lead. I’m involved with programs for students and young professionals, because I think it is important to connect with the next generation of CPAs.
