President

Xinli (Ginny) Gao

President

Hello, all! This is Ginny. It is my pleasure to be elected as the President of ZFAA. I joined ZFAA in January 2017. Back then, I was the secretary and help to improve internal correspondence. I always enjoyed being involved in the exciting Forensic Accounting Field. As a family member of ZFAA, I get many chances to explore and to talk to Forensic Auditors and other professionals working in this field. Moreover, I made a lot of friends and built a strong network connection with other Baruch elites and professionals via collaborative events.

ZFAA has a friendly culture in which we share equality and mutual benefit among board members. We have members pursuing either graduate degrees or undergraduate degrees. All majors are welcome, as long as you truly want to enhance your soft skills. We believed that working in groups is better than doing everything alone. To differentiate ourselves, we hold events that focus on particular topics, and we always keep an eye on the dynamic accounting world and deliver the latest news to Baruch students who share the similar interest with us.

Guangping (Grace) Zhang

Executive Vice President

Hi I’m Grace! I obtained my Bachelor’s degree in Finance from Brigham Young University, and I’m currently pursuing my Master’s degree in Accountancy at Baruch College. I have had different jobs for my family’s electronic store – from working in Sales and Customer Service to Human Resources. On a weekly basis, I flew to different cities throughout China; my past positions have all helped strengthen my communication skills. After solving some customer fraud cases, I found that I really enjoy the process of finding the truth.

I am currently working as an accounting intern in a small CPA firm and would like to join a larger CPA firm as a forensic auditor. Because of my passion in forensic accounting, I joined ZFAA. Coordinating with other members to hold events has enabled me to learn more about forensic accounting and given me the opportunity to network with professionals in the field. By taking on a role in the Executive Board of ZFAA, I am able to improve my leadership skills, work efficiently in a team, and resolve conflicts should they arise.

Assistant Secretary

Christophe Jean

Assistant Secretary

I grew up in one of the smallest Caribbean island called Haiti. I came to the United States at the age of 22 to pursue a career in accounting. After I graduated from High School in 2010, I took one year off to think about my future. Once I realized Accounting was the perfect choice for me, I went to University of Port-au-Prince where I studied for 2 years (2011 - 2013). At same time, I went to INAGHEI where I study Business Administration. Besides that, I am a hard-working person, easygoing, and also enjoy working in groups. In 2015, I went to SUNY Westchester Community College where I earned my Associate degree in Accounting. During my last two semesters, I was the Treasurer of the Accounting Club where I was in charge of all the expenses and budget of the club. For the summer of 2016, I received my first award as an EOP student for all the sacrifices and hard work that I dedicated for. In 2017, I came to CUNY Baruch College to pursue my bachelor’s degree. I have been in the planning committee at Baruch Accounting Society during my two previous semesters.

Treasurer

My name is Huiping Wu. It is my first semester in Baruch’s Master of Science in Accountancy program. I earned my Bachelor’s degree in Accountancy at Baruch as well. Currently, I am working in a small CPA firm, which allows me to gain significant insights into different accounting and tax concepts. I am also becoming more familiar with the process of preparing corporate and individual tax returns.

It is an honor to become a member of ZFAA. I believe ZFAA will be a good place for me to practice my leadership skills, as well as give me the chance to network with accounting professionals. I plan to contribute fully to ZFAA and grow with this organization.

On a more personal level, I’m an easy-going person who enjoys challenges and likes to try new things. I have many hobbies, including hiking, biking, and listening to music.
