University of Massachusetts

Matt got accepted to the University of Massachusetts in Amherst,Massachusetts. We will be moving there probably late June early July and we are driving the 36+ hour drive. We are excited for the adventure of living on the east coast. Some places we can't wait to explore:
1. Salem Witch Museum
2. Boston
3. Plymouth Rock

I'm excited that we are so close to so many fun places! 4 hours to Philly, 3 hours to New York, 6 and a half to D.C. and about 8 hours to Matt's family.

His program is between 4 and 5 years. He is getting his Ph d in accountancy. He is almost done with his Masters from BYU. He loves research and hopes to teach at a university where he will be able to do  mainly research,but also teach classes. His research focus is experimental accounting. This kinda means  he is interested in doing experiments where he finds out more about how auditors think and what motivates them in the workplace. Ask Matt if you want to learn more about it,but that's what I understand about it.

Literally cross country roadtrip

  1. Congrats guys! Milwaukee doesn't look too far out of your way on your drive out here. :) Or if you want to stop in Chicago, we could come say hi!
