Personal Quote

“What makes us different? We bring the resources of a large firm with the personal touch of a small firm and combine that with proactive business and tax planning.”

Background & Experience

Bruce’s success in building one of the best known and respected small business advisory groups in the market is a direct reflection of his ability to bring the firm’s & More philosophy to his clients, combined with creating a small firm feel within a large firm environment.
