I was recently asked, “why the change in direction?” My response: “it isn’t”. I’ll be responsible for re-establishing the MWM’s audit practice, much like I was doing with Doan + Associates (except that at D+A, I was starting one for the first time). One added advantage I do have now is that I don’t have to build my own infrastructure because there is one already in place, but the existing infrastructure is a minor convenience. The real value here is walking into a firm that has a great tax practice with professionals who care about their clients and a firm that has a well-deserved and well-established reputation for providing excellent client service.

I am on the same trip as before, but now with an upgraded vehicle.
