Personnel

My name is Raymond Harris, and I am essentially a sole proprietor. Leslie Stewart is my accounting manager and technology director. Rhonda Nager is a colleague of mine that directs all of my audit work. I have two outsourced bookkeepers that handle accounting work for us on a contract basis, and I have my Dad, G. Ray Harris to serve as my semi-retired partner and legal eagle. My Dad is both a CPA and an attorney, so I enjoy a business insight that grows from each profession. My own experience is mostly tax, and mostly working in the "Big Five," where I got rid of clients' pain just once a year. After ten years (accountants can be slow on the uptake) I noticed that most small businesses have some kind of pain I could help with year-round, but not at Big-Five billing rates. So I have been on my own for six years, with no regrets. I firmly believe my marriage wouldn't have survived another six years in the Big Five World - outside interests such as a family are bad for careers. My children know me, and I want to help you with the same goal. Working smarter, not just harder, is the key to enjoying life and growing your business at the same time.

I believe in the value of relationships. I view every client relationship like a partnership, and I truly believe that my success is a result of your success. I am committed to providing close, personal attention to my clients. I take pride in giving you the assurance that comes from years of advanced training, technical experience and financial acumen. My continual investment professional continuing education, computer technology and extensive business relationships is indicative of my commitment to excellence. I hope we get a chance to meet someday soon - just call our office or attend one of our seminars.
