Chris Hall and I worked together a few years ago when he was fresh-out graduate of ASU with his Masters in Taxation. He became a CPA and went on from that firm to work out-of-state with a Big 4 firm in a highly-specialized, highly technical tax department. The cold in the Northeast got old and he and his wife came back to AZ. Chris then worked for a mid-sized local CPA firm, and has now accepted the challenge of working with our boutique tax and tax planning firm.

Please let us know if you have any questions.
