cristine Mendoza
Experienced CPA who moves your audit forward
Based in los angeles, california
With a background in audit, systems, and design thinking, I help organizations become audit-ready with clarity and confidence.
Drawing on experience across complex engagements, I set structure where it’s missing, simplify what feels overwhelming, and stay hands-on through execution. My work blends technical rigor with thoughtful systems design, so processes don’t just pass audits - they actually work for the people using them.
Curious how I can support your audit readiness or clean up what’s been holding you back? Let’s connect!

I’m known for a composed, collaborative approach that makes complex financial processes feel more manageable and grounded.
