When I started at the firm I was doing taxes and auditing, which turned out not to be my "thing". When they moved me onto our municipal clients, I found my niche doing accounting for local governments.

 Name: Kate Hylan Hometown: Spring City, PA Company: Cystic Fibrosis Foundation Position: Senior Development Director Length of time you have been with your organization: 8 Years Briefly describe your journey, noting both personal milestones and obstacles you may have faced along the way.
I got involved with the CF Foundation when my nephew was born in 2010 and diagnosed at birth with CF. I had no idea what the disease was, so I went online and saw that it was an orphan’s disease (which means it’s rare and not enough people in the Country have it for the government to care about it) and at the time the average life expectancy was only 17. I started a walk team at the Philadelphia Zoo and started fundraising. A position opened within the local chapter in September 2011 and after 6 interviews, I was hired! I had no development experience professionally, just a background in corporate event planning and was overjoyed that they were taking a chance on me. I was hired as a Development Manager and learned the ropes quickly! My first year I oversaw 5 walks. I was single and living in Manayunk, so working nights and weekends didn’t really bother me. I loved learning about all the research that was being done on the new drugs that could potentially help my nephew and all the people who have CF.  Name: Matthew Walsh Hometown: Havertown, PA Position: Assistant Branch Manager Company: WSFS Bank Length of time you have been with your company: 5 Years Briefly describe your journey, noting both personal milestones and obstacles you may have faced along the way:
I started my banking career fresh out of High School as a part time teller in 2007. When I first started off I was quite shy and timid. Working in this industry has taught me to be more comfortable with myself. I have met people from many backgrounds, and have had the ability to help people in ways I never thought were possible. Each and everyday when working with people’s finances there are obstacles we face, but I love to uncover clever solutions to help them out. |
