I am a Certified Public Accountant and have worked in public and private accounting positions. I completed Leadership LaPorte in 2020 along with training at the international accounting firm, Grant and BSA Wood Badge.
As for knowledge and experience for the office of the Auditor, my career has trained me in areas of accounting, internal controls, and financial reporting.
More directly, I am in my sixth year as a LP County Councilman and served as President in 2023 plus 8 years on a town council. Budgeting is part of the process and as Auditor, the responsibility is to serve the Council to provide clear and concise information in a timely manner so they may make informed decisions.
This varied experience has been invaluable to prepare me for this role.
