Celebrating the Achievements of Our Leaders

February 24, 2022 by Teri Pough

Congratulations spotlight

Our Firm’s Partner, Sandra D. Callanan, CPA, who is responsible for the Firm’s audit and accounting practice and quality control systems, was recently honored by the Connecticut Society of CPAs (CTCPA) as a recipient of the 2022 CTCPA Women Distinguished Service Award. Sandy was one of seven women honored during the celebration recognizing excellence in leadership and management in the accounting profession. This virtual event was held in January.

Sandy has over 35 years of accounting, audit, and tax experience. She volunteers and is a member of several boards and committees and mentors interns and new staff members. Sandy filmed a brief video (see link below) for the CTCPA Women 2022 Awards program, in which she shares “The advice that I would give my younger self,”  providing helpful insights for young professionals starting their own accounting careers.

You can read the announcement of Sandy’s award and about her many interests and activities in an article of the CTCPA (see link below). 

Fun fact…  Sandy rappelled down the side of an 18-story building for charity. That’s a 90-degree vertical descent of more than 200 feet!

Our entire CironeFriedberg family congratulates Sandy on this well-deserved award!

HEALTH ALERT

 

As the coronavirus (COVID-19, Delta variant, and Omicron) outbreaks in the United States, Connecticut, and the New York Metro area continue and more cases emerge, we here at CironeFriedberg are taking proactive steps to help ensure the safety of our employees and maintain security and work continuity for our clients.

Currently, all CironeFriedberg offices are open for business and are fully operational. Should the outbreak result in closing any of our offices, we have a business continuity plan in place that will enable our professionals to work remotely and continue to provide you with the level of service you have come to expect from our team. If you experience a business disruption because of the outbreak, please reach out to us at info@cironefriedberg.com or call us to discuss in more detail.

The health and safety of our team and our clients is our number one priority. We will continue to monitor communications from the CDC and other federal, state and local organizations and provide regular updates for any necessary changes to keep our employees, contacts and clients informed and safe.  Some preventative safety measures we have already implemented include:

  • Providing sanitizing and other preventative services throughout our offices
  • Reviewing and continually testing our technology practices to help ensure that our systems support a seamless transition should we have to shift to a fully remote workforce

We are confident that the steps we are taking will allow us to continue to successfully service our clients, efficiently and effectively during this time.

We encourage everyone to be as diligent as they can be in helping eliminate the spread of COVID-19, the Delta variant, and Omicron.  For more information about COVID-19, please visit the CDC website: https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/index.html.

Please consider the potential disruption for your business due to the coronavirus outbreak and don’t hesitate to contact us if we can be of assistance.
