CPA license while employed with Cooper-Lybrand in San Francisco. Her 25
year career path included service to Wells Fargo Investment Corporation

advanced to become managing director in Global Operations at Barclays
Global Investors. Outside of Carol's dedication to her career, she
enjoyed participating in competitive softball and racquetball where she
