Tom has over 35 years experience as a CPA and has been an integral member of our team for even longer. He is a member of the AICPA and the RISCPA. Having graduated cum laude from Bryant University in 1980, earning a Bachelor of Science in Business Administration with a concentration in Accounting.
Tom initially utilized his college degree designing accounting software in the early 1980s. He was responsible for planning and programming individual income tax computer programs that enabled accounting firms, including our own, the capability of preparing tax returns in-house during a time when firms were just beginning to use the new technology that was becoming available.
During that time, Tom began developing strong business relationships by helping clients anticipate their needs and solving their problems. His clients are predominately small businesses as well as individuals. He also has extensive experience at local Housing Authorities (HUD). When “outside the office” away from his professional commitments, Tom can be found spending time with his family and friends.
