ABOUT ME
My name is Dan Rimkus, and I am an Assistant Professor of Accounting at the University of Florida.
My research primarily focuses on using lab experiments to study topics in auditing. In particular, I am interested in the evidence collection decisions of auditors, the willingness of client personnel to cooperate with audit requests, and how social factors influence both auditor and client manager decisions in an interactive environment.
Prior to pursuing a PhD at the University of Texas at Austin, I worked in Chicago as an auditor for KPMG and as a corporate accountant for McDonald's. In my free time, I am an avid runner. I have completed several marathons and a 50-mile ultramarathon. I am thankful to have a wonderful wife, Nicki, who willingly attends these very long and not particularly entertaining races.
