Park last year was elevated to Pacific South Growth Markets leader for Big Four accounting firm Ernst & Young, which has him overseeing Los Angeles, Orange County, San Diego, Phoenix, Denver, Las Vegas and Honolulu. Formerly managing partner of the L.A. operation, Park has grown the firm’s presence here to the tune of about 2,200 accounting professionals – the second largest headcount in Los Angeles County.

Park also continues to serve as vice chair of the Greater Los Angeles Girl Scouts – where he also chair’s its development committees – and as a member of the Los Angeles Philharmonic board.
