What was your proudest moment?

I was very proud when I reached my 40-year membership milestones in the AICPA and Cal Society of CPAs. I was amazed (and proud) that I had lasted that long in a challenging profession, and developed so many valued professional relationships.

What is your alma mater?

California State University, Northridge (1973)

What is your next project?

Continuing to assist our managing partner and chief operating officer with C-level projects; non-professionally, about to realize the horrors of a home remodel.

Who is your hero?

My hero was my mentor and best friend, Allan Whitman. Until his passing in 2016, we were partners for 40+ years, during which he taught me about the value of client service, integrity & honesty, and being fully transparent in all of my professional dealings and relationships.

What do you like best about Los Angeles?

I have lived in Los Angeles since I was 2 years old. Considering the weather, the entertainment options, the professional landscape, and the wonderful people – why would anyone want to live anywhere else?
