In 1982 I was 30 years old and had spent more than enough time bouncing around from one corporate office to another looking for the right fit. I decided the next step in my career was to become a self-employed professional. After a brief stint in a law office I left with a clear vision of how a true professional ought to treat their clients. Thereafter I began my own accounting firm. It was not easy at first but I knew a strong commitment to service and respect for my clients would eventually pay off. The years rolled on and by word of mouth, the clientele grew.

By 1993, I was positioned to become a Certified Public Accountant. Now, over 25 years later I am the President and Founder of Chesapeake Tax & Financial Services. Our dedication to provide the highest quality service and expertise has blessed our business with the opportunity to serve individuals and businesses along the entire east coast with the accounting, financial, and tax service they deserve.
