Who's behind this

I'm a CPA with a Master of Science in Taxation, and I specialize in trust, estate, and gift taxation.

Weekend visits with friends kept turning into coffee conversations — about trusts, tax returns, deadlines, and the very real overwhelm of a job nobody prepared you for.

The Confident Trustee is that conversation — for the people who need it but don't happen to know me personally.

Come in — the coffee's on.
