In my 30 years in professional services, one thing has always remained constant: passion. I was always most interested in solving problems for clients and developing long-term relationships. When I founded R&M Consulting with my partner, Jay Mages, we purposely built our business on passion. We love what we do, and we wanted to make that apparent in every engagement. I like to work closely with our clients to develop tailored solutions that best reflect their wants and needs. Clients are still the reason I come to work every day, and helping them is still the best reward.I’m able to support our clients thanks to the specialized expertise I’ve developed in tax compliance and consulting. I’ve worked at KPMG, Ernst & Young and within large corporate tax departments. Prior to starting my own firm served as VP of a national consulting firm, where I built and managed the Chicago office and established the tax services practice area.I also love to be active in professional organizations and my community and serve in the following roles: *President and Board of Directors of the Chicago Finance Exchange*Secretary and Board of Directors of The University Club of Chicago*Advisory Board at First Women's Bank*Board of Directors and Audit Committee Chair of the CPA Endowment Fund of Illinois*Treasurer of Lincoln Park Zoo Women's Board*Advisory Board of Cellar Angels*Past President of The Chicago Tax Club*Awards Committee at the Illinois CPA Society for Advancing Diversity, Outstanding Educator and Young Professional Leadership*Member of the Institute of Internal AuditorsI was honored to receive a Distinguished Service Award from the Illinois CPA Society and be named one of the “40 Under 40” leaders in the tax and accounting profession by the CPA Technology Advisor.R&M Consulting is a boutique consulting firm that provides corporate tax, internal audit and IT audit services.
