Overview

I am a tax director with over 12 years of experience in public accounting specializing in the tax area for a variety of industries. My past 7 years of experience has been in the Central IL Marketplace. I work mostly with small privately held companies and their owners. I am passionate about creating a partnership with my clients and becoming a trust advisor for all of their needs. I love working at CLA because I feel one of the firms biggest strengths is providing small firm client service to our clients while having the resources of a national firm. As a firm we are able to address the growing complexities in the business world.
