KPMG’s Technology Enablement consulting business was launched by Miriam where she served as its leader for three years.
Before re-joining KPMG in 2008, Miriam spent five years at Bearing Point, thriving from doing what she loves: helping clients solve business challenges, and knowing that her team was providing bottom-line value. She led multiple practices: Communications, Wireless, Cable, and Media - exceeding margins while doubling revenue and segment profitability.
Her industry experience was born and bred at Telcordia, where she rose up through the business, gaining expertise in networks, technology and call centers.
