Education

Belinda has a BA in Accounting from Queens University, Charlotte NC; then she later graduated Cum Laude with a second degree from More Than Conquerors College. Over the years, Belinda has attended annual conferences and completed other training materials, which have enabled her to use the audit service as a springboard for offering management advice and suggestions for improving governmental reporting. As is her custom, Belinda completes more than the required continuing professional education (CPE) courses annually. 


The experience and commitment to the governmental and not for profit industry is revealed in the number of CPEs the Managing Partner completes annually. Because the Firm provides governmental audits, Belinda attends specialized training courses based on the higher required standards of GAGAS, where team members take a minimum of 24 hours of training in each 2 year period in subjects and topics directly related to government auditing, the government environment, or the specific or unique environment in which the audited entity operates in.  However, the Managing Partner completes 24 hours annually in this field of study.
