“Amanda brings a wealth of knowledge and skill to this position,” Revenue Commissioner David Gerregano said. “We’re thrilled to promote her to deputy commissioner.”

McGraw has worked for the department since 2011, in various financial positions. Before Revenue, McGraw worked at the Department of Treasury.
