I have worked exclusively in state and local taxation for 24 years, 15 in public accounting and nine with the Washington State Department of Revenue.  I have very deep state tax knowledge and have assisted clients with issues in all 50 states and the District of Columbia.  

​

Over my career I have had the opportunity to work with a wide variety of industries including:

​

• Manufacturers;

• Software;

• High technology;

• Online retailers;

• Wholesalers/distributors;

• Healthcare;

• Professional services; and

• Nonprofits

​

I have been able to consistently provide my clients with high quality, high value services by developing a deep understanding of their businesses.

​

Educating my clients is a key focus.  My goal is to give clients the tools to identify state and local tax issues and opportunities as their business evolves.

​

Educating fellow accountants is also a passion.  I am regularly asked to be a speaker at various tax seminars by the NCACPA, other organizations, and other CPA firms. 

​​

I am an avid runner.
