Is it possible to be all things to all people? If you’re a forensic accountant, the answer is yes.

With over 25 years of complex forensic accounting experience, Ampcus Forensics Chief Forensics Officer Danielle Gardiner, CPA, CFF has worn many hats helping insurance companies, adjusters, and lawyers navigate the numbers behind the narrative.

Day to day, Danielle might be doing “accounting and CPA stuff,” like crunching numbers in Excel or analyzing cash flow. But on other days, she might be interviewing a claimant, reading policy coverage, dodging falling debris, supporting colleagues on a claim site, mediating a high-stakes boardroom meeting, or explaining her fraud reporting to a judge.

Doing a great job at all of these things means everything to Danielle - it’s essential to her identity as a forensic accountant, but also to how she shows up for her community as a mother, spouse, volunteer, and leader of the global Ampcus Forensics team.

In this episode of Sync Up, we spoke with Danielle about the job beyond the numbers. When balance - or caffeine - are in short supply, Danielle incorporates a few non-negotiables that help her navigate difficult situations: her values and her routines.
