Katie Imholte is a Senior Audit Associate at
Boulay,
Heutmaker, Zibell & Co. P.L.L.P. and has
enjoyed working for the firm since receiving
her Accounting degree from the University of
Wisconsin-Eau Claire. She was immediately
drawn to BHZ's unique culture, appreciating
the variety of work offered by the regional
firm and valuing the opportunity to work
directly with executive level leadership at
various client locations. Katie's
professional progression at BHZ is impressive
and is a testament to her outgoing
personality, passion for people, and loyalty
to the firm. A member of our Nextworking

thrilled to get a chance to sit down with
Katie during the heart of busy season to
learn about her proudest personal and
professional accomplishments, favorite free
time fun, and a hidden talent that made our
jaws drop!
