Lynette began her accounting career with then prestigious Arthur Andersen & Co as an auditor. She spent nearly 10 years in various internal audit, accounting, and finance positions at Hewlett-Packard Company, and also has extensive experience as a real estate investor. She has prepared hundreds of individual and corporate tax returns and payroll tax filings. More recently, she spent two years in New Orleans performing fraud investigation and forensic accounting work for the largest class-action court ordered settlement program in the history of the United States. She also spent nearly a year investigating allegations of embezzlement at a closely-held family business, identifying stolen funds in excess of $1.6 million along with fraudulently filed corporate tax returns and quarterly payroll reports. From her public accounting roots at the largest and most respected global accounting firm in the world to her years in Corporate America to her consulting experience with small family businesses, Lynette has developed a proven track record as a well-rounded finance professional.
