Speakers
John Ng
From the start of my career, I've been serving government, higher education, and not-for-profit clients throughout the Metro New York area. My passion is ensuring my clients receive quality audits, top notch client service, and the technical guidance they need when adopting new standards or entering into new transactions. In my role in the National Office of KPMG, I've provided technical training and guidance to our Public Sector. Further, I've assisted on various technical inquiries for our Public Sector clients throughout the United States. The experience has enhanced my knowledge and skills due to exposure to technical matters that I may not have encountered otherwise. The most rewarding aspect is helping our clients and teams navigate through their most difficult accounting and auditing challenges.

I help clients and audit teams research and solve technical issues in my role as technical leader for the public sector practice at Plante Moran. I develop technical articles, webinars, and tools to help clients implement new accounting standards. I am a member of the AICPA, MICPA, GFOA, MGFOA, and an instructor for various training programs including Plante Moran's continuing professional education program. I have over 19 years of governmental auditing experience.
