Virginia Business// August 30, 2023//
Peters has led the state’s professional association for CPAs since 1997, representing more than 13,000 members who work in private and public sectors, including educational institutions.
In April, the VSCPA announced its investment in the Center for Audit Quality’s Accounting+ program, a national campaign to attract a new generation of diverse students into the industry’s talent pipeline. Many firms have had to raise salaries in recent years to attract and retain young accountants amid industrywide labor shortages.
Peters has served on the LGBTQ+ committee for the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants since 2021. She serves on the executive committee for the Virginia Council on Economic Education and has served on its board since 2013.
Peters earned her master’s degree in public administration from Virginia Commonwealth University and has a bachelor’s degree in history from the University of Virginia. She is a graduate of the U.S. Chamber of Commerce Institute for Organization Management and Lead Virginia.
