I Want to Be an Auditor When I Grow Up with Elizabeth McCormick

May 27, 2025 • Kelly Paxton

This week, I’m joined by my friend and audit pro Elizabeth McCormick.

We chat about her unexpected path into internal audit, starting her own company Audit Forward, and how tools like Power Query and AI are changing the game. Elizabeth also gets real about growing up with congenital hearing loss and how it’s fueled her push for disability inclusion in the profession.

We cover fraud, ethics, embracing failure, and why showing up as your full self matters more than ever.
