AUDITOR'S OFFICE STAFF

 
SHARON WINSLOW ERICKSON, City Auditor

Sharon
originally joined the City Auditor’s Office in 1989, serving in positions of increasing responsibility until 2001, when she accepted the position of City Auditor for the City of Palo Alto, California.  While in Palo Alto, she issued a series of award-winning performance and revenue audits that identified numerous operational efficiencies and more than $2 million in additional revenue for the City.  She also developed the City’s highly regarded annual Service Efforts and Accomplishment’s Report to provide the City Council, staff and the public with an independent, impartial assessment of past performance to strengthen public accountability, improve government efficiency and effectiveness, and support future decision making.  In July 2004, the Palo Alto Weekly labeled her “the most trusted person in City Hall.” 

Sharon
returned to San Jose as City Auditor in March 2008.  One of six City Council Appointed Officials, she is a graduate of Stanford University, a Certified Internal Auditor, and a Certified Government Financial Manager.
