Principal & Strategic Advisor
Gary is a seasoned financial leader and licensed Certified Public Accountant (CPA) with a career defined by helping businesses navigate the complexities of modern finance. He holds a Bachelor of Science in Accounting from Bryant College, a foundation that has supported decades of strategic partnership with small and mid-sized enterprises.
Throughout his career, Gary has bridged the gap between traditional accounting and forward-thinking business strategy. His experience spans local and national firms, where he specialized in:

Gary’s commitment to stewardship extends beyond the balance sheet. He is an active member of the community, serving on multiple nonprofit boards where he provides financial governance and strategic guidance.
A native of Westerly, Rhode Island, Gary now calls New Haven home. When he is not steering financial strategies for his clients, he is likely leaning into his coastal roots. An avid fan of the water, he enjoys spending quality time with his family and making the most of life on the New England shoreline.
Gary’s commitment to the Connecticut business landscape extends beyond the office. He is deeply integrated into the professional and civic organizations that drive the local economy:
Professional Memberships: Gary is an active member of both the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA) and the Connecticut Society of Certified Public Accountants (CTCPA), staying at the forefront of evolving tax laws and accounting standards.
Civic Engagement: Reflecting his dedication to local growth, he is a member of the Hamden Chamber of Commerce, where he collaborates with fellow leaders to support a thriving regional business environment.
Educational Foundation: A proud alumnus of the University of Connecticut, Gary graduated Cum Laude with a Bachelor of Science in Accounting, establishing the rigorous academic foundation that has fueled his 30-year career.
Gary’s mission is simple: to provide the clarity and financial infrastructure business owners need to stop worrying about their back office and start focusing on their vision.
