Kathy brings both public accounting firm and internal audit management to the operations of GAP Resources. She began her career with Ernst & Young’s Computer Audit practice in Chicago, with a focus on insurance clients such as Aon and the Country Companies. She founded GAP Resources, LLP in 1998 after serving as Vice President of Internal Audit for Washington National Insurance Company, in which she promoted both a process-oriented approach to problem solving and the integration of systems issues into financial audit activities.

Kathy has a BS in Accounting from the University of Illinois at Champaign-Urbana, is a Certified Public Accountant (CPA) and a Certified Information Systems Auditor (CISA).
