Education: BS and MS in Business, University of Colorado
Job Overview: I audit company processes, procedures, projects and financial accounts. I frequently work with people to better understand risk to the company and how to mitigate that risk through controls or process changes and updates.
How I ended up at MWH: I was initially intrigued by the industry that the company is a part of. The more I learned about the functions that I would be working in and with the more excited I became about joining the company.
What is on my desk right now: Papers, messy stacks of papers, post its, my spiral notebook, a to-go mug, professional publications and a calculator.
Free time activities: I enjoy playing with, entertaining and being silly with my almost 2 year old son. Seeing the world through his discovery process and the energy he dedicates toward exploring life is refreshing. It makes me laugh and occasionally makes me want to cry or scream! I love gardening in the summer and take pride in growing beautiful flowers. Sipping wine and spending time with family and friends is something I always have time for. My husband and I are working on expanding our wine knowledge, taking classes and attending pairings. I also love a good book to read but haven’t been reading as much recently as I would like to.
Best career advice I’ve ever received: “It’s a marathon not a sprint.” Part of why I like this piece of advice is that it is simple and can be applied to many situations at work and in life.
Experiences at MWH: I love learning about what MWH does across the globe and cultivating relationships with individuals in those offices. Both play into my overall understanding of the company and make me and my team better at what we do.
