New manager takes helm of South King County office

Aug 22, 2019

Saundra Groshong, audit manager for our South King County team, has left SAO after 19 years of service. Groshong accepted a position as finance director at the City of Buckley. Saundra was a great leader for our Office, and she will be missed.
