The Vintage Difference
As much as I love numbers, I love people more. When I decided to return to public practice my desire was to create an opportunity that allowed me to continue to do what I have always done best and enjoyed most – strategizing and collaborating with clients to enhance their financial well-being. After almost 30 years as a CPA I want to bring my knowledge of tax law, financial products, and business acumen to the table to benefit my clients in the most personal way possible. Technology is a tool that will be used behind the scenes to create administrative efficiencies allowing me to spend more time serving each and every client. My intention is to create a small, intimate practice of clients who desire to have a better understanding of their financial life and who value having me as their financial partner.
