Experience:

1971 - 1976: I was a staff account and had client responsibilities from the outset of my employment. I was expected to provide all of the bookkeeping, payroll and income tax needs of small businesses under my control. I also assisted partners with larger clients as part of my regular work.

Individual and estate tax compliance and planning were also a significant part of my practice.

I am married to the former Lorraine Spengler (September 1971) and together we have three children, all now grown and on their own. Over the years, I have assisted the local high school as a part-time coach for the track team (Sprinters and middle-distance runners) and the girls soccer program as an assistant coach. I have also been active in various local non-profit organizations such as the local Kiwanis Club of Fort Bragg and The Sports Foundation.
