I have worked with many accountants over the years. Mark is by far the best. He's not just good with accounting, but strangely enjoys it. He is high character, has a great sense of humor, and a really cool Aussie accent. He falls into that rare category of genius. He is able to study your unique business situation and propose solutions that greatly improve your model and your tax situation. I highly recommend Mark and his team.

I have enjoyed working closely with Mark on the accounting/bookkeeping side of things in our business office. I cannot express enough how much I appreciate him, his character, his thorough knowledge of his profession, and the underlying personal integrity which governs his life. He has patiently helped me find the answer to many hard questions. I would highly recommend him for all of your accounting needs.
