Hey dude.
Great to hear from you. You have a nice profile overall. You have great grades and seem to have advanced quite well at work. I think coming from (or did you just study in?) a Western state will work to your advantage, and definitely make you more interesting. But not just that. You also have a plethora of activities which will give depth to your candidacy that others will struggle to get. So basically, I think you're pretty much good to go in the 5-20 ranking, and should have a solid shot at even your first choices.
Overall I find that your school list is well-balanced as well.
So, now all you gotta do, is go for it!
Best,

Thanks Jon! I lived in the state from middle school through college, so I would definitely say I grew up there
I was lucky enough to get an internship in international tax at a Big 4 firm while in college; however, I did not enjoy the compliance aspect of the job so, while interning with IT, I started doing projects with transfer pricing. The group ended up extending me an offer and I moved to the East Coast three weeks after graduating from my undergrad.
