Bio

Hi, I’m Kai Baba β€” a fourth-year BBA student at Wilfrid Laurier University specializing in Accounting and on track to complete all CPA PREP courses by August 2026. I’ve gained hands-on experience in financial reporting, forecasting, reconciliations, and cost analysis through roles in both the public and private sectors. I enjoy working with data to support smarter decision-making and improve financial processes, and I’m eager to apply my skills to real-world finance and accounting challenges.
