What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that offers growth opportunities, a collaborative culture, and the chance to lead impactful audit initiatives.

I am a dedicated audit professional with extensive experience in managing audit-related activities and ensuring compliance within the Department of Defense. Currently, I serve as a Senior Lead Audit Liaison at Ernst & Young, where I oversee critical audit processes and collaborate with various stakeholders to maintain high standards of accuracy. My role involves preparing documentation, tracking audit progress, and providing expert guidance on audit facilitation matters.

Throughout my career, I have honed my skills in financial reporting, compliance, and team leadership. My previous positions at Deloitte and Kearney and Company have equipped me with a robust understanding of financial audits and accounting operations. I take pride in my ability to train and support team members, ensuring that all parties are well-informed and equipped to participate effectively in audit activities.

With certifications in CISA and PMP, I am committed to continuous professional development and staying updated on best practices in the audit field. I am passionate about leveraging my expertise to contribute to organizational success and drive improvements in audit processes.
