About

My focus is to provide my clients with honest and accurate tax services, and to help them minimize their income taxes thru utilization of all allowable IRS deductions and tax reduction strategies for which they are eligible to claim.

I also seek to advise and assist them to better manage their businesses. I have been in public accounting for 20+ years, and prior to that 15 years working primarily as an internal auditor and manager in the finance and insurance industries. I have a wide breadth of knowledge in business management and processes, including payroll, benefits, human resources, insurance, financial management and administration that allows me to effectively advise my clients. I have been a CPA for 30+ years.
