Being promoted to the IS Auditor II role has allowed me to emphasize the skills I already have while learning to expand upon the ones I am learning. I am now a main piece of all the audit phases: risk assessments, planning, testing, reporting, and remediation. I have also started to develop an internal data analytics program that can help the department track and report on our processes and KPIs. Lastly, it's important to note that an important part of the job is to develop meaningful relationships with clients and promote the image of internal audit throughout the organization.
Working with Nelnet, I have been able to experience a more technical and government compliance side of internal audit. Working at a financial and technological services company has given me experience working with advanced network systems, SOX compliance testing, as well as SOC 1 and SOC 2 reports. In addition to government compliance, I have been working with advancing data analytics and embedding them within the audit process. Being able to use data analytics within various parts of the audit process allows auditors the chance to test more of the data and provide better insights to the clients. However, I have only been at Nelnet a short time and can't wait for more!
While working as an Internal Auditor for Ameritas, I was able to experience every part of the internal auditing process.

Working at Ameritas, I was able to find audit experiences from all aspects of the insurance industry, including physical access, HIPAA compliance, information system design and access, as well as all parts of selling and maintaining life insurance and financial service products.
During my time at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln, I was offered the opportunity to help my professor, Dr. Amber Messersmith, teach Business Writing. I was able to help students overcome problems with various assignments related to business writing, such as memos, letters, emails and other skills one may need in the professional world. This experience helped cement my understanding with professional writing styles.
Working as a community management intern for Walgreens helped me experience the busy and demanding life of running a retail store. I worked at the busiest Walgreens in Lincoln, NE and was able to fully appreciate the demands of customer service when you are needed in three places at once. This job included customer service, employee training, inventory systems, pharmaceutical services, and more!
