This is the picture I planned on posting on April 16, at the end of “busy season.” Well, “busy season” hasn’t ended.

I’m grateful for your referrals, which have provided unprecedented growth for my small business. Earning your loyalty and working for multiple generations of your families means the world to me.

If your family or small business is looking for a CPA, let me know. I’d love to provide quality information during the year to help you make informed financial decisions.

During a recent chat with a new client, my final question was “What’s your favorite dinosaur?”
Why would I ask that? Because he was stressed about his taxes! The dinosaur conversation helped put him at ease.
My goal is to relieve my clients of the stress at “tax time,” and that can often be done by doing some planning during the year.
Tax planning/prep aside - I’m curious - What’s YOUR favorite dinosaur? 🦕 🦖
