“I am extremely proud to be promoted to partner and thrilled to continue working with my team to grow our Professional Practice and Private Equity offering. Partnerships and partners are due to encounter a significant change in how they are subject to tax with basis period reform occurring this spring, and I look forward to continuing to assist our clients as they navigate these changes alongside my fantastic team.”
