Mahoney has 30 years of broad experience in the areas of consulting, treasury, debt management, investment management, accounting, budgeting, and business development. She will be named Commissioner effective Feb. 4.

“Lucinda’s experienced background and outstanding work ethic will make her an excellent Commissioner. Her previous experience with the Municipality of Anchorage, and understanding of debt services, will be valuable to not only the Department of Revenue, but our entire state as we look to create a more prosperous future,” said Gov. Dunleavy. “I thank Lucinda for her readiness to serve our great state.”

“I share the Governor’s vision of obtaining long term fiscal sustainability to create opportunities for all Alaskans and move Alaska forward. I look forward to working with Governor Dunleavy and his administration to identify practical and efficient solutions to the issues our state is currently facing,” said Mahoney.

Mike Barnhill, who was appointed Acting Commissioner of the Department of Revenue in December will now serve as the department’s Deputy Commissioner.
