In her LinkedIn profile, Askew said that during her tenure as acting auditor and auditor, she eliminated a two-year backlog of audits and “provided staff specialized trainings weekly to monthly.”
Askew was a frequent presence before the Board of Estimates, often delivering critical audits of city agencies.
She made waves last September when an audit of Mayor Catherine Pugh’s office disclosed that staff were improperly using a city-issued credit card, racking up thousands of dollars of questionable expenses, including nearly $24,000 to buy and dry-clean coats given to homeless people.
