Business Sherpa in Chief

 

Joselin R Martin, Founder

CPA, CGMA, CCIFP

Joselin Martin is the founder and chief Consulting CFO of True North CFO. She grew up in a family construction and real estate business and knows what it is like to never be able to leave work at the office.  Most recently, she worked for an international construction subcontractor as its Chief Financial Officer, retiring after 20 years.  

Joselin worked for a major accounting firm to get her CPA experience, but even there, she specialized in entrepreneurial businesses.  She has continuously worked in private business ever since, with a short break in academia when she was a visiting assistant at the University of South Florida.  True North CFO has given her the chance to return teaching, combining her academic and business experience to help other professionals in their lifelong learning journey.

Joselin is committed to all areas of the accounting profession, and her volunteer work includes board participation at the MACPA, AICPA, CGMA, and CCIFP.  She has also moved to the international aspect of accounting as the Deputy Chair of the Professional Accounting Organization Development and Advisory Committee of IFAC.

She is active in the construction industry, serving on CFMA, CFMA Maryland, and ASA Baltimore boards.  Joselin also participates on the CFMA Suicide Prevention Committee to increase the conversation around mental health in the industry.

When she’s not joining Zoom calls or attending in-person events, Joselin enjoys her covid garden, running, and trying her husband’s gourmet cooking.
