William S.

Senior Accounting Generalist

I develop sophisticated accounting solutions for clients seeking to streamline their financial processes. I emphasize bringing to emerging and mid-size market players the financial knowledge, skills and perspectives gained over a 35+ year career serving clients ranging from sole proprietors through Fortune 500 corporations. Particularly in regards to reporting obligations of pre-revenue startups, I explain how and why the wealth of misinformation found on the Internet serves to distort the accurate reporting required of these entities once they do launch. I have achieved a strong following (based principally on client referrals) in the provision of accounting and financial management advice and support to foreign nationals from dozens of countries who have or are considering entry into the U.S. marketplace.
