What motivates Greg?
"I've been part of the MJR family for 30 years and currently manage the firm's tax practice. My wife Lori is a retired attorney, we enjoy traveling and spending time with family including our two golden retrievers Bailey and Cassie. Although my sons Brad and Ryan are grown luckily they both still reside in California and one is also in public accounting. It's not hard to stay motivated at a diverse firm like MJR. I truly enjoy finding the not so obvious solution to complex issues for our clients. It's a wonderful feeling to help a client achieve their goals and be a part of their company's growth. The situations are constantly changing and forever bringing rewarding challenges."
