That fall, I moved to Murfreesboro, Tennessee to study at Middle Tennessee State University. Murfreesboro is about 30 miles southeast of Nashville. It is one of the fastest growing cities in America! I ended up having a gap year and I graduate in May 2017 with a BS in Accounting. I will go straight into the Master's of Accountancy program at MTSU and during that time, sit for the CPA exam. I currently work for a company called HTI Technology, Inc. in LaVergne, TN ( just north of Murfreesboro) as a Staff Accountant. We manufacture small motors for all kinds of applications and some of our biggest clients are Whirlpool and GE. My boyfriend and I just moved into a new townhome together with our dog, Kona.
