1. Assurance Senior Manager

   EY

   Sep 2009 — Present

   I currently serve as a senior manager in the external audit practice in the EY Denver office. My primary industry is technology, but I have worked in a variety of industries, including consumer products/retail, health care, oil & gas, asset management, and insurance. I serve both private companies as well as a large multinational publicly traded Fortune 100 client. I have over 7 years of experience auditing publicly traded companies under a SOX 404 environment and have worked with teams in India, Germany, the UK, Hong Kong, Taiwan, and Singapore throughout the past several years. In addition to US GAAP, I have experience in auditing statutory financial statements in the health insurance industry as well as in international GAAP. Outside of the audit environment, I serve on two Boards that are focused on advancing the CPA profession, which include work with the Colorado Society of CPAs and the AICPA Board of Examiners. Internally I have a strong passion for teaching trainings and have taught for six years. In 2018 I was asked to participate as a facilitator in our International Intern Leadership Conference and have presented at other internal conferences with firm leaders such as our CEO, Vice Chair of Assurance, Global Tax Services Leader, Advisory Service Line leader and other leaders within EY. Consistently recognized as one of the Americas Top Trainers for audit trainings, as well as one of the Americas region\'s Top Coaches, in recognition of my focus on the development and career coaching of our people. Finally, in 2018 I was featured in a Global Audit campaign that was focused on reaching recruits across the globe and encourage them to enter the audit profession.
