Blair Genther
Certified Fraud Examiner
I've seen finance from every angle. I began in the heavy-highway construction industry in the midst of the Great Recession. As a cost accountant and district accounting manager, I learned how large operations actually track and account for their money when every dollar matters. As a licensed financial advisor at a major national firm, I held Series 7, 65, and 66 licenses, and wrote hundreds of financial plans for high-net-worth individuals. As a Chief Financial Officer, I helped build the systems to support a company sprinting into its growth cycle.
I know how to read the statements, I know how the money flows, and I know what it all means when the numbers finally hit your wallet.
As a Certified Fraud Examiner, my work is built on a discipline. I follow the money, verify every figure, and never claim what I can't show. Then I take whatever I find and translate it into plain English, so the people affected can understand the situation and draw their own conclusions.
Rome Right Now
I also produce Rome Right Now, an independent civic-journalism project covering the finances of Rome's city and school governments. It's neutral, sourced reporting with no spin and no predetermined outcomes.
