Colleen Witten

Finance Professional & Accountant | Buena, New Jersey

About

Colleen Witten has spent more than 25 years working in accounting and corporate finance, and she's built that career the hard way, starting from the ground up in banking and earning credentials along the way. She holds a Master of Science in Accountancy from the University of Phoenix and a Bachelor of Science in Accountancy from American Intercontinental University.

Her first real foothold came at CoreStates Bank, where she worked her way up to Assistant Manager. She ran a team of twelve, built out consumer banking sales programs, and kept daily branch operations running smoothly. That kind of hands-on management shapes you in ways a classroom can't. From there she moved into corporate accounting, taking on staff and senior accountant roles where she handled payroll, accounts receivable, financial reporting, and audit prep for organizations that were still figuring out how to grow.

But finance wasn't the only thing she was running. For over a decade, Colleen owned and operated a state-certified child care business in Buena, New Jersey. It demanded real discipline. The same attention to budgets, compliance, and day-to-day operations she brought to her corporate work had to show up there too, except now the stakes were also personal. Families were counting on her. She built something that served her community, and she did it while holding everything else together.

She's still doing that. In Buena, Colleen volunteers as Assistant Director of Children's Ministry and serves as a Connection Center Coordinator at her local church. She and her husband Allan have three sons. One of them is currently serving in the U.S. Air Force. The work looks different depending on where she's standing, but the commitment doesn't change much.
