Meet Jeff

“Truthfully what drew me to this field was my father. His entire career was in public accounting and he was a founding partner of KBST&M. My familiarity with public accounting started at a very early age. I am proud to say that I have spent my thirty-year professional career and even some of my teenage years working at KBST&M. Over many decades the CPA has been able to serve the small business owner in a similar capacity that a primary care physician serves for most health care issues. The most enjoyable aspect of my job is that in many situations I am the first financial professional my clients rely upon to assist them with important financial decisions that they confront. I value their confidence in me and of course the firm, in entrusting us to expertly handle their accounting and tax needs during my tenure at the firm and beyond. I feel that most of the clients that I have been fortunate to work with would agree that I make it my priority to address any inquiry as promptly as possible. I am a Maryland native and have lived my entire life in greater Baltimore. I enjoy spending time with my wife and three kids. I am an avid tennis player and enjoy travelling to locations across the country and beyond.”

Jeff holds a Bachelor of Science degree in Accounting from the University of Maryland, and a Master’s Degree in Taxation from the University of Baltimore. He previously held the role of Treasurer for the Financial Planners Association.
