Kathryn began her journey into tribal finance and accounting in 2007 working as a Controller at a tribally owned casino. She now has more than 17 years of tribal finance experience working in government, enterprises or on a board of directors. Kathryn has always tried to be transparent in her operations while teaching others around her how decisions are being made and building capacity at the local level. Now at NGC, Kathryn is excited about the opportunity to bring tribal finance professionals together to learn from one another and strengthen financial systems and processes to build capacity on a bigger scale.
