I’ve been auditing for three decades. I’ve conducted financial, I.T., forensic, compliance, and performance audits on entities ranging from small county departments to giants like Wells Fargo and Universal Studios.
I was elected president of the Utah Association of Counties and serve on the Board of Directors for the National Association of Counties. I sit on the Executive Committee that helps create national accounting standards for all state and local governments. I have worked with legislators at the state and federal level, helping craft good laws that strengthen transparency, accountability, and good internal control procedures.
