A Certified Management Accountant I started in the charitable sector in 1990 working as a Senior Accountant in the accounting department for a large charitable organization and remained in the sector ever since. Over the years I have held many roles in the accounting world most recently as Director of Finance of a national charitable organization. In addition to working in the sector I served on n
onprofit boards, often as Treasurer, for a number of years. Between board and work experience I have been involved with organizations with budgets ranging from under $100,000 dollars to over $100,000,000 dollars in sectors including, social services, international development, health, environmental, cultural/heritage and employment agencies. In recent years I have become involved with social accounting researchers at the Ontario Institute for Studies in Education (OISE/University of Toronto) in applying social accounting concepts in the sector that can help organizations measure the impact they have on the communities they work with. Throughout my career I have always enjoyed teaching and supporting staff in the area of financial management. I have delivered training to individuals, small staff groups and to larger groups of various nonprofit umbrella organizations. In all cases my goal has been to deliver information in a way which makes participants feel more confident and comfortable about finances in their organization. Connect online:
