Joanna Friedman

Overview

As a Principal in CLA's DC-Baltimore region, I am committed to providing impeccable service to our nonprofit clients. My passion for the sector began early in my career, where I gained valuable experience at a Big 4 firm. Over the years, I've developed a deep focus on supporting organizations in the arts and culture industry, as well as associations, foundations and social service organizations.

Building strong, trusting relationships with my clients is at the heart of what I do. As a Certified Public Accountant in both Virginia and Maryland, I take pride in helping organizations navigate complex financial landscapes with clarity and confidence, ensuring transparency every step of the way.
