My Passion
Did you know that according to the Association of Certified Fraud Examiners, businesses lose 5% of their revenue to fraud each year? I am a forensic accountant and my passion is helping organizations that have suffered from employee theft. I help organizations through the process and I help them keep it from happening again.
I am very passionate about what I do. I want to raise fraud awareness, follow the money, and make sense of the numbers for those who do not enjoy numbers and details.
Why?
Many years ago I worked on a large contractor fraud case where the fraudsters took people’s money instead of building barns. One victim needed a loafing shed built for her old, sick horse that she had grown up with. She met with the fraudster in the Spring to get an estimate. The structure would cost $1,500. She saved all Summer and paid a down payment of $900 in the Fall. No structure was ever built. That $900 might not be a lot of money to some people, but it was everything to her. No one should ever have to suffer a loss of money or trust. This is why I am very passionate about fighting fraud. I use my unique skills to help people like you.
