                      HONORING MS. CARRIE KERSKIE

                                 ______
                                 

                         HON. MARIO DIAZ-BALART

                               of florida

                    in the house of representatives

                        Thursday, March 27, 2014

  Mr. DIAZ-BALART. Mr. Speaker, in recognition of Women's History month 
I rise today to honor Ms. Carrie Kerskie, an outstanding individual and 
someone who has continuously supported the South Florida community.
  Ms. Kerskie is currently President of Marcone Investigations, Inc. 
and is a highly sought-after speaker, trainer and consultant 
specializing in identity theft protection, detection and restoration. 
Prior to her work with Marcone Investigations she worked for some of 
the top investment and insurance companies in the country. She is also 
an accomplished author, penning Your Public Identity; Because Nothing 
is Private Anymore.
  On top of all this, Ms. Kerskie is the founder of the Association of 
Certified Identity Theft Investigators, and created the Certified 
Identity Theft Investigator Program. She developed this program after 
her years of experience working with identity theft victims had given 
her ample knowledge to develop procedures that greatly reduce the 
restoration process of these victims, saving them time and money.
  Ms. Kerskie's expertise in the identity theft field has made her a 
featured guest on NBC News, ABC News, and Fox News. She has also 
written articles, and been highlighted, in Gulfshore Business, 
Southwest Florida Business Today, PI Magazine, and Adverse Witness. Her 
tireless efforts have also garnered her recognition, being given the 
2010 American Business Women's Associations Neapolitan Chapter ``Woman 
of the Year'' award, the Harvey R. Morse Founder's Award given for 
outstanding service to the Florida Association of Private Investigators 
and the private investigation industry, and in 2009 was selected as one 
of Gulfshore Business' ``Top 40 Under 40''.
  Mr. Speaker, I am honored to pay tribute to Ms. Carrie Kerskie for 
her continued service to South Florida and I ask my colleagues to join 
me in recognizing this remarkable individual.
