It’s Done!
Inserted below here is my Candidate Statement as presented to the Registrar of Voters
Candidate Statement Justine K. Quiñones, CPA
I am a credentialed CPA and have earned my MBA in Operational Management. I have been in management positions in three departments of Riverside County over a 22 year career that followed working in private industry as a corporate accountant, tax preparer and financial auditor.
As the economy recovers my philosophy of “Simple Changes Bring the Greatest Return” is as appropriate and as necessary as it was 20 years ago. During my County career I developed a centralized year-end accounting system, improved a ten-year cash projection report, and created a medically indigent services payment system which also created jobs in the County. These tools are still in use today.
I believe in honest work based on doing the right thing economically, leading and living by example, while communicating clearly to others the need to demonstrate accountability and responsibility.
As your County Auditor, I will work with departments to create policy and procedures that are both effective and efficient while promoting cross-department cooperation, initiatives and insight. I believe that policies and processes built on these stepping-stones protect you, the taxpayer, from waste and fraud which saves County resources.
I ask for your vote for Auditor of Riverside County.
Great, I never knew this, thanks.
