After the reinsurance company Nathan worked for was purchased by ING for $6 billion, he played a key role in transitioning its operations onto ING’s enterprise resource planning system. He began embezzling money to pay off personal debt and fund a passion for gambling. What started as a $1,100 check to a credit card, spiraled into an $8.5 million fraud over the next four years. It was only a co-worker’s suspicions that brought the fraud to an end. After being caught, he pleaded guilty and was sentenced to 97 months in federal prison. He was released in September of 2014. While serving his sentence, Mueller played an integral role in the development and expansion of a community outreach program where white-collar inmates spoke on the subject of business ethics. With the integrative approach as the core of his message, he has delivered more than 60 speeches and ethics workshops to a broad spectrum of organizations and groups including Chambers of Commerce, Allete, Inc./Minnesota Power, University of Minnesota-Duluth’s MBA program, 148th Air National Guard leadership training and the University of Wisconsin-Superior’s accounting and business ethics classes.Publicationshttp://www.journalofaccountancy.com/issues/2014/aug/fraud-20149862.htmlhttp://www.cpa2biz.com/Content/media/PRODUCER_CONTENT/Newsletters/Articles_2014/CPA/AUG/WasNot_worthit.jspUpcoming Speaking Engagementshttp://www.fraudconference.com/26th-speakers.aspxhttp://business.utulsa.edu/centers-institutes-programs/conference-of-accountants/speakers/
