AUDIT MANAGER

Compliance / Sarbanes - Oxley / IT Audit / Internal Control / Risk Management

Business Process Reengineering / Policy and Procedure Development / Integration

I have created the audit and compliance systems that enabled companies in industries as diverse as utilities, oil production, chemicals, consumer foods and electrical manufacturing to maintain strict compliance with Sarbanes-Oxley and other rigorous reporting and transparency mandates.

By establishing IT audit controls, I protected information assets, properly dispensed information to authorized parties, mitigated loss and assured corporate efficiency, accuracy and security. I have worked in collaboration with Big 4 firms PricewaterhouseCoopers, Ernst & Young, and KPMG in resolving internal control issues.
