He's particularly looking forward to meeting his GSCPA colleagues around the state. "I have found them to be a great group of people," he says. "It's funny because people think of CPAs as a boring group, but ever since my first day in public accounting, I have found the opposite to be true.

"Protecting the CPA brand is and will continue to be the focus," he says.
