Inside the Mind Of...

What do your clients get when they work with you that they may not get from other consultants? They get a tax professional who is committed to finding a solution that accomplishes their goals. Sometimes that requires rethinking the original idea, but that is where the true value lies.

What is the best advice you’ve ever received? A college professor told me I should pursue an internship with a Big 6 CPA firm. I did, and the rest is history.

How do you define success? Leaving an organization better off than when you first became associated with it.

Just For Fun...

Describe yourself in one word. Driven.

How do you spend April 16? On vacation with my family.

What is the best book you have ever read? Who Moved My Cheese by Spencer Johnson, MD.

What one thing about you would most people find surprising? I actually have a sense of humor.

How do you unwind? Listening to jazz in the car on the way home.

What did you want to be when you grew up? A pilot.
