Diane spent more than thirty years in accounting before the work found its edge. The turn came at JD Demolition, where a routine look at the books turned up thousands of dollars in fraudulent invoicing that no one else had caught — bills for work that was never done, approved and paid, quarter after quarter.
Chasing that trail — matching invoices to jobs, jobs to sites, sites to the dates they were supposedly worked — she found the part of accounting she'd been missing her whole career. Not keeping the books. Reading them.
When she finally retired, retirement didn't take. Within months she was restless, certain there were other companies quietly bleeding money to the same tired schemes, with no one looking closely enough to notice.
So she founded Plumbline — to give owners, boards, and counsel someone who would look. Today she leads a team of accountants and investigators who do exactly that.
