I can answer questions concerning internal and operational auditing, fraud prevention procedures, internal control, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, COSO control concepts, and management oriented auditing. I would love to provide business-owners with suggestions on how to prevent and detect fraud so that they are proactive in protecting their wealth since the very beginning of their entrepreneurial affairs. I can answer questions to both English and Spanish population. I am very committed to keep my standards up today so I know many resources where I can direct those seeking advice.

I can answer regarding Internal Auditing - especially operational audits, audit management, and how to revitalize a dysfunctional audit department. Also give advice to "auditees" on how to deal with auditors.

I DO NOT ANSWER HOMEWORK OR CLASS PROJECT QUESTIONS. For those answers, I suggest you scan previously asked questions and search on your favorite search engine.

I ALSO DO NOT ANSWER TAX QUESTIONS AS THIS IS NOT WITHIN MY EXPERTISE. NOTE: I am not an accounting expert although i will try to help if I can... ask at your own risk.
