SC&H Group, a leading management consulting, audit, and tax firm, announced today that Erin Charles, Principal in its Audit Practice, has been named a “Maryland’s Top 100 Women” by The Daily Record.

The Daily Record began Maryland’s Top 100 Women in 1996 to recognize outstanding achievements by women demonstrated through professional accomplishments, community leadership and mentoring.

“It is an honor to be recognized among women leaders who are shaping the future by setting new standards in their workplace and communities,” said Charles. “Working with SC&H Group for more than 15 years has given me many opportunities to grow professionally as a leader, a mentor, and as an avid volunteer within the Baltimore community; however, I am truly grateful for my personal life experiences that have made me a stronger and more resilient woman.”

A panel of business professionals and previous Maryland’s Top 100 Women honorees from throughout the state reviewed the final applications and selected this year’s honorees.

"Each of this year's Maryland's Top Women 100 honorees is unique in what she does, but all share common traits that move our state forward. They lead companies, chart new territory and mentor future generations," said Suzanne Fischer-Huettner, publisher of The Daily Record. "These women inspire those around them by their actions and their words. The Daily Record is pleased to honor their many achievements."

Charles leads SC&H Group’s audit, accounting, and consulting engagements for clients across multiple industries including manufacturing, distribution, retail, non-for-profit, government and technology.

“Erin’s commitment to the growth and success of SC&H Group resonates throughout her efforts to increase our footprint in the marketplace, and most importantly, in the community,” says Mike Young, Director, SC&H Group. “I am very proud of Erin for receiving this well-deserved recognition and know this will not be the last time we are recognizing her as a leader within the region.”

“It is our honor to have someone of Ms. Charles’s expertise as our Board Treasurer,” said Antonia Fasanelli, Exectuive Director of Homeless Persons Representation Project. “Her approach of providing gentle, unassuming, and clear guidance that makes her one of our most beloved Board Members.”

Charles serves as the Treasurer on the Board of Directors for the Homeless Persons Representation Project, represents the Finance Committee on the Board of Directors for The Tyanna Foundation, and volunteers for The Baltimore Station, Ronald McDonald House, and Junior Achievement of Central Maryland.
