Audit enough business practices in your work life, and you begin to understand the ‘ways of the world’ — certainly, the ways of the business world! Trumbull-Nelson’s newest addition to its administrative staff, Terry Keane, brings a universe of financial knowledge to the Company in her role as Controller.

The position is ready-made for a self-described “numbers-oriented person who could read about finance all day long”! Terry’s broad business know-how is the result of over 20 years of work in both internal and public auditing within local organizations. These efforts provide a solid foundation for the tasks that Terry will encounter in her leadership role at Trumbull-Nelson Construction Company. As a former auditor, she admits that her role was primarily to ‘suggest and recommend’ change when such change was appropriate. Now, her charge will include both recommending and implementing such advice! Undoubtedly, she’ll put her own stamp on day-to-day accounting and bookkeeping procedures within the Company. And her able staff is ready to provide her with the assistance she’ll need to ensure program success!

A West Lebanon, New Hampshire native, Terry left the Upper Valley to pursue higher education goals. She received a Bachelor of Science Degree in Business Management from the University of New Hampshire, in Durham. Her studies during this period provided opportunity for study in Northern California over the period of a year. She enjoyed the West enough to return a year later to live and study in Fort Collins, Colorado, where she received a Masters of Business Degree (with a focus on Accounting) at Colorado State University. Today, along with work responsibilities, Terry is very involved and focused on the demands of family life. This part of her world includes her husband, Randy; and their sons, David, age 22; Michael, age 11 and Mathew, age 9. Michael and Mathew are very active in local basketball programs, and will be soon go from ‘court’ to ‘diamond’ pursuing spring baseball.

Terry’s family recreational pursuits include hiking and travel. Work and family commitments do not keep her from finding ways to serve the broader community. She currently serves on the United Way of the Upper Valley Board of Directors, and pursues other volunteer activities as time permits.

“Prior employment has offered me the opportunity to work with tremendous people…invaluable business mentors. My new role is made easier by this experience, and also by the professionalism and experience of fellow Trumbull-Nelson employees.”
