Our Expertise

Kurt has 15+ years professional experience working in both public and private accounting. During his tenures at both a top 10 international firm headquartered in Ohio; CBIZ, Inc. (NYSE:CBZ) and a regional firm in Maryland, Kurt has provided financial statement audit, review, and compilation services across many different industries.

From a tax perspective, Kurt focuses on providing strategic tax initiatives that independently create value for business owners.

Kurt has focused his efforts within the non-profit, construction, real estate, and automotive industries. His tenure in private accounting includes SOX 404 ICFR framework, with a company deemed a large accelerated filer under SEC regulations and listed on the NYSE. Kurt also worked for a high profile non-profit in Washington DC.

He has extensive experience assisting businesses with critical issues, including revenue recognition principles, design of internal control systems, and complex financial reporting. Kurt has been instrumental in adding value to the clients he serves and enjoys partnering with businesses on each of their unique journeys.

What Sets Us Apart

Unlike most CPA firms, Kurt brings a rare combination of traditional accounting rigor and real capital markets experience. As a FINRA professional and active trader, he understands derivatives, futures contracts, digital assets, and complex financial instruments from the inside โ€” not just from a textbook. When you're navigating crypto taxation, day trader election strategies, or 83(b) filings, you're working with someone who speaks your language.

By being a digital CPA firm, we are positioned to work together without you ever having to leave your home or office. Our technology-driven approach means faster turnarounds, secure document exchange, and real-time collaboration regardless of your location.
