Working with intention
Senior Tax Associate Morris Cain and Consulting Partner Andre Riley participated in a mentorship program led by SOAR, an initiative focusing on enhancing the experience of team members of color.
Morris said his mentor has helped him be intentional in his professional development.
“My coach helped me develop my career goals, and my mentor helps me focus on these goals and think strategically about any challenges I may go through along the way,” he said. “Hearing from someone that has been through similar challenges in their career is so valuable.”
