The Institute of Internal Auditors (IIA) inducted three of its members into its “Hall of Distinguished Audit Practitioners,” during its annual General Audit Management conference this week in Grapevine, Texas.

Her career in internal audit has included leadership roles in the financial and professional services, health care and pharmaceutical industries.

He authored the latest version of The IIA Quality Assessment Manual and has served as the International Treasurer and Chairman of the Global Finance Committee.
