Q&A

Q. Without naming names, tell us about your favorite client and why you enjoyed working with them.
I do work for four generations of one family, and I’m also on the board of their closely held business. Helping the different family members reach an understanding and make informed decisions about tax and trust issues is very rewarding. I enjoy being part of their decision-making process, and they appreciate my work.
Q. What keeps you up at night?
Actually, I sleep pretty well once my head hits the pillow. Occasionally I think about the tax code ― it has gotten so complicated. I also think about our staff and how to make sure they are happy.
Q. Describe your work style.
Collaborative and easy going. I’m always willing to listen and learn, as well as be proactive and contribute. I like to teach and I make time for people―my door is always open.
Q. Who is (or was) the most influential person in your life
My wife. She is always so supportive and helps me see things from a different perspective.
Q. If you could pass on a nugget of wisdom to aspiring accountants or consultants, what would that be?
See your first years as an apprenticeship and learn your trade. Don’t take reviews personally, learn from them. They are meant to be educational. At the end of the day it’s all about client service, and to get there, you need to go through the learning process.
