Smith received her Bachelor of Business Administration in accounting from Texas A&M University. She is a certified public accountant and internal auditor, and a registered Texas School Business Administrator.
“ I am honored that I was selected as the controller for CFISD,” Smith said. “I am excited about this opportunity and look forward to working with everyone.”
