Richard Oakes
Over the past five years I have been honored to work with Laurie in her role as VP, Risk and Assurance Services. During that time, we were refining the processes, metrics, and controls for the company's procurement operations and Laurie and her team were invaluable in assisting define key controls across the SBUs. During this experience, I found Laurie to be a collaborative, intelligent, and dynamic senior leader. I highly recommend Laurie to any group looking for a highly motivated and competent Risk Assessment/Internal Audit leader.

Laurie is a great leader! She was a great communicator and effectively communicated the strategic direction of the department and provided effective leadership for tactical tasks. She fostered a fun and productive work environment, encouraged professional development, and ensured her staff had the resources needed to complete their work. Laurie was also able to adapt to changing situations and make effective decisions on the fly. Laurie is an excellent leader, and I strongly recommend her for any accounting/auditing leadership role!
