Born in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, Clarissa Lucas is an experienced audit and risk management leader in the financial services industry. She began her writing endeavors in 2019 when she published her first white paper as part of a department learning initiative for the Fortune 100 company for which she worked. Since then she has become a thought leader for the auditing profession and began pioneering the term “Auditing with Agility” within her own team and with other local audit teams. She has written articles on Auditing with Agility that have been published by the IIA and IT Revolution. Clarissa has spoken at a number of industry conferences on this topic locally and internationally. She wants to help even more people understand this topic, so this book transpired. She hopes you use it as a tool to share and expand your own organization’s influence and value-potential.

She is a Certified Internal Auditor, Certified Information Systems Auditor, and Certified Investments and Derivatives Auditor.
