Bio

My name is Ahmed Abdul Wahid, and I came to Canada with my mother in 2015 in search of better education opportunities. When I arrived, I was in grade 7 and As I progressed through my studies, I became increasingly interested in accounting and finance. I was fascinated by the way money flows through organizations and the role that accountants play in helping businesses run efficiently. I became determined to learn as much as I could about the field and to pursue a career in accounting.

I am currently a second-year student in the Bachelor of Commerce (Accounting) program at York University. I am focused on gaining as much practical experience as possible and learning the ins and outs of accounting and audit work. I am currently on the lookout for opportunities to build my skills and knowledge, whether through internships, volunteering, or other activities.
