PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE SUMMARY
I have a strong analytical and technical background. With the US Army Audit Agency, I served as auditor-in-charge (AIC) GS 511/12 or senior accountant on numerous audits and consulting assignments. I am highly rated and proficient in financial and operational audits, and consulting assignments. Reviewed and tested financial record to include accounts receivable/payable, inventory, fixed assets, as well as all asset, liability, income and expense accounts. I have supervised audit staffs of two to seven auditors, depending on the length and complexity of assignment. I have analyzed organization wide financial, logistical, and acquisition systems. Determined system interface with other systems and reliability of data. Recommended action(s) necessary to correct system deficiencies. Advised senior management officials on status of the audit. Responsible for preparing audit reports. I have demonstrated flexibility in successfully managing a wide variety of audits.
ACHIEVEMENTS
Financial: Was responsible for conducting various levels of financial audits. On financial audits, was responsible for reviewing financial statements, verifying account balances from financial reports to subsidiary records. And from subsidiary records to supporting documentation. Audits ranged from one week to audit a Red Cross chapter, to over a year for an organization wide financial audit. I conducted fieldwork using agency statistical sampling program. I conducted tests of the internal control program and other tests I considered necessary under the circumstances. I have extensive experience with financial audits of hospitals, morale welfare and recreation activities, contracting centers, inventory control points and audits of the Defense Finance and Accounting Center.
Operational: I have extensive audit experience conduction operational audits -- primarily audits involving contracting operations, inventory controls, privatization of in-house functions, and training programs. I received several sustained superior performance awards from agency. On three occasions, I uncovered fraud and other defalcations, these included misappropriation of gasoline, misuse of purchase agreements, and misconduct of a government official. I determined that weaknesses in internal management controls contributed to these situations. I developed a matrix, used in all audit reports that connected internal control weaknesses to audit findings. Two of my audit findings were reported in the agency newsletter, “The Audit Trail”, as significant reports.
Consulting: I was heavily involved in consulting efforts. Primarily to review adequacy of new data based systems introduced by organizational activities. These data base systems ranged from a single entry office management system for the Army Chief of Chaplains, to an organization wide inventory reporting system used worldwide. Was responsible for review of deployable medical equipment sets used by the military during combat and deployment. This review tested the availability, training, maintenance condition of medical equipment used in trained as well as equipment stored in lay away for mobilization. I received a letter of commendation from the Army Chief of Chaplain.
