A CPA with a passion for ice hockey, it is no wonder that his favorite quote by the "Great One" Wayne Gretzkywould reflect his commitment to the sport of ice hockey and accounting--- “I skate to where the puck is going to be, not to where it has been.”
Jim’s focus as a CPA is on assisting clients to get to where they want to be rather than where they have been. Just as a coach brings a sense of purpose and direction to the game, Jim guides clients through the changing tax, accounting and estate environment. His proudest moments follow the successful transition of a clients' business to the next level.
Jim serves as a board member of the Construction Craft Training Center and the Associated Builders and Contractors and is a member of various other construction industries associations. Jim’s professional memberships include the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants and the California Society of Certified Public Accountants.
