EXPERTISE: Business Operations and Strategy, Mergers & Acquisitions, Client Relations & Business Development

  • Favorite thing about my job – Our clients rely on us to solve their most complex business and personal tax/accounting problems and often lean on discuss larger business strategy and operations challenges as well. There is no better feeling than digging in to work alongside an awesome team to continually earn clients’ trust and confidence. I draw so much energy and motivation when meeting with a prospective client who has been referred to us by an existing client or friend of the firm and they highlight our reputation as a key driver for considering a move to our firm.
  • Work outing: Annual firm retreat to Park City – it’s been a great way to celebrate and build bonds with our incredible team members.
  • Best thing I can cook:  I received a wood-fired pizza oven for my birthday a few years ago and have been working on my pizza skills ever since. Nothing better than slinging some homemade pies for friends and family on the weekends!
  • Favorite vacation: After we got married, my wife and I escaped from the world via a six-month honeymoon backpacking across Southeast Asia and Japan. It was the trip of a lifetime. We limited ourselves to a budget of $40/day which led to some very interesting decisions and experiences including sleeping in a treehouse that we could only zipline into and out of in Laos!
