Got time for a chat?
Hello! We're Mike and Kevin! Although we are accountants, we also have a passion for the work manufacturers do – so much so that we've shaped our careers around it. From helping clients like you increase the value of their companies to being involved with industry organizations, we've immersed ourselves in the business of manufacturing.
One thing we've noticed above all else? We truly enjoy talking with you! One of our favorite parts of the job is spending time with you at your offices, warehouses and community events, because that's how we get to know you and find new ways to help. In fact, some of our best ideas to serve the manufacturing industry come from these casual discussions.
So we figured...why not continue the conversation?
