Her Story
About Magda
Magda Chvez serves as co-director at RemyAdvisor.com in Irvine, California. With more than 11 years in internal auditing, she builds workflows for key company processes by meeting with managers to identify critical risks and controls, evaluates current systems, and provides recommendations on whether to purchase new tools to enhance business operations. Her career began in Colombia after high school when she joined KPNG for training in internal auditing, followed by a role at one of the country's largest companies. She later worked at BRING as a contenting leader in accounting and finance, supporting an Oracle migration that included travel to Virginia to meet company leadership. Magda holds four master's degrees: one in finance from her home country of Colombia, an Executive MBA from Valencia Spain, a Master in Business Analytics completed in San Francisco in 2022, and an MBA in Management Information Systems. She is currently studying for her Certified Internal Auditor certification, which requires passing three exams, with the goal of obtaining it within three years while continuing in internal audit, potentially at a larger firm.

01What advice would you give to young women entering your industry?
We can support each other. I don't know everything and I hope that they need my help or maybe we can give advice each other. We couldn't give up our goals, our wishes, our dreams. We need to continue being prepared for this world that is changing every day, more with the artificial intelligence, so we need to continue improving and getting knowledge for doing our job, the daily activities.
