My Experience
A well-rounded professional fueled by helping others and challenging myself
A Certified Public Accountant (CPA) and Certified Information Systems Auditor (CISA) with global experience as a Chief Audit Executive working collaboratively with Boards and Senior Executives. I have two passions:
- Transforming organizations by helping them identify, manage, and assure their key risks so they continue meeting (or exceeding) goals and improving operations. Sure, I enjoy identifying and solving puzzles; however, I enjoy engineering ways to solve them more efficiently even more!
- Ongoing pursuit of knowledge! You can call me a ‘YouTube’ expert. There are an infinite number of resources out there to help expand my areas of expertise. This is why you should ask me for documentary or podcast recommendations instead of what new TV series to watch.
I’ve held a wide range of finance and accounting roles over my 15+ years of experience. My diverse background brings a unique perspective and allows me to personally connect with the majority of stakeholders across the business. Rather than being laser-focused on a single area, I maintain a holistic view of the organization with the expectation that we work together as one team with one shared vision.
