Asian American Accountants Celebrate Lunar New Year

Ascend, a networking organization for Pan-Asian accounting and finance professionals, ushered in the Year of the Tiger last Friday evening in New York.

The event featured performances by dancers representing some of the different ethnic groups in China, along with Asian food of various types, and raffle prizes like Deloitte-branded towels.
