Summary
As a CPA and small business owner, I have a very diverse background in accounting and finance. I further developed my professional career by obtaining a Certified Valuation Analyst designation and a Certified Master Analyst in Forensic Financials designation. However, I have retired those designations. This diverse knowledge of financial information is not only through education, but also through application.
