Zeke Sigler was just that.

While there, he immediately stood out to NCACPA staff and SLINC team leaders as someone who showed immense potential and would be a dedicated NCACPA member and volunteer leader. And he was.

The Young CPA Cabinet established the “Taking it to the Max” Award to honor the legacy of Maximo “Max” Mukelabai, 2011–12 NCACPA Chair, who passed away unexpectedly on July 8, 2011. Max championed engagement in the accounting profession and noted, “Being a part of a profession requires that you participate therein. In order to participate, one must be present.” He challenged young association members to “come in, learn, listen, and then, obviously, stay engaged.” Max set an example of engagement through his service and was the first member of the Young CPA Cabinet to come up the ranks and serve as association chair.
