This information is provided by the candidate

I have two decades of professional experience as a Certified Internal Auditor, CPA and Certified Fraud Examiner working with national firms KPMG and Deloitte. As an Adjunct Professor of Audit, I have performed audits for agencies including Fortune 500 companies, U.S. Office of Inspector General, U.S. Department of Labor, and City/County of San Francisco.

I have received many accolades for professional excellence including: Knighton Award + Gold from the National Local Government Association (2006), Exceptional Achievement Award from the U.S. Department of Labor (2005) and a Significant Achievement Award from Deloitte & Touche, LLP (2000).

I have also shown leadership in my field having served on the Board of Governors for the Institute of Internal Auditors Northern CA + East Bay Chapter for almost a decade, including as President and currently as a member of its International Committee.

I have over 20 years of experience working in internal audit departments in government and non-government organizations. As a CPA and auditor, I bring the knowledge and values necessary to have more transparency and accountability in Oakland.

Oakland has been my home for over 25 years, it is where, as a single mother, I built my life and raised my three daughters. I am committed to making Oakland run with efficiency and transparency and have the credentials to move Oakland forward: driving for more cost savings, and accountability on every level.
