"I'm thrilled with the opportunity to lead Deloitte's TMC practice and build on the vision set by Nick Gonnella," said Andrews. "Deloitte has a rich history in helping tax departments operate at the highest levels, and I look forward to working with our outstanding TMC leaders and professionals to assist our clients with achieving their operational goals."
