Introducing: Kevin Aufman This is the unconventional digital biography of an unconventional corporate accountant.
I¡¯m an internal auditor. Sounds boring but¡­¡­.
I build the future through an honest assessment of business structures, processes and controls.
I diagnose problems and have a vision for continuous improvement.
When I said I like to build the future, I wasn¡¯t kidding! I build a lot of things.
A Dock¡­ A Barrel ¸é²¹´Ú³Ù¡­
Old Trucks¡­. Old Cars¡­.
A Trebuchet¡­. Neat Tools¡­.
A Garage¡­.
And a LOT of other stuff!
I come from a diverse professional and personal background. These experiences allow me to visualize and diagnose problems and to recommend workable solutions.
A little about that diverse background: I started out as a mechanic working on Tractor Trailers and heavy machinery.
I mowed a lot of grass and fixed a lot of lawn equipment along the way.
I spent some time as a Mechanical Engineer at Kettering University in Flint, Michigan.
Due to my professional and personal background, I speak fluent Engineer ¨C unique among most accountants.
I changed course, came home, and received a BS in Business Administration ¨C specializing in Finance - from the University of Pittsburgh.
I minored in History. I have a lot of appreciation for understanding how we got where we are! I am a closet history geek, usually reading 2-3 history related books monthly. Understanding past cultural, economic and political themes can help to predict how businesses will be impacted in the present.
Insurance Banking Heavy Manufacturing While at the University of Pittsburgh, I held three accounting related internships. These were unique in terms of industry and professional roles and exposed me to a variety of experiences, problems, industries and systems.
For the past five years, I¡¯ve worked for Westinghouse Electric Company, the largest provider of Nuclear Power Plant Services in the world.
I¡¯ve held three very distinct roles within the business: Project Accounting Manufacturing Accounting Internal Auditing Each position has taught me a new set of skills to add to my personal toolbox. My ability to speak intelligently to Engineering, Supply Chain, Manufacturing Operations, Project Management and Quality is largely due to my wide range of responsibilities and unique personal background.
One of my core principles is to NEVER STOP LEARNING. I¡¯m currently working on my Masters of Business Administration through the University of Massachusetts. I¡¯m also working to obtain my Certified Internal Audit (CIA) license. I¡¯m an active member of the Institute of Internal Auditors.
Speaking of the NEVER STOP LEARNING mantra: I¡¯m a father of a six month old son. I honestly have no idea how to raise a child, but I¡¯m learning something new everyday through child-father training, advise from my family and the patient and knowing words of my lovely wife.
In order to keep myself and others informed of current events, I read, analyze, collect and share links and articles I find throughout the internet and traditional paperback world. This information helps to assess how current economic, political and cultural changes will impact the business world, the energy industry and the accounting profession.
