Give Back to the Community Through Tax Assistance

Tax-AideCommunity service is a very important part of my personal goals.  While the demands of managing our firm’s operations, organizing our FPA chapter’s Mid Winter Conference, and starting a family can get quite large, I make the choice to include volunteering in my schedule.
