Bill came to the world of ledgers and tax returns by an unlikely route. He majored in music, and spent time as a songwriter in Los Angeles. To help make ends meet for his young family, Bill started a small part time business in 1988. He quickly discovered that he actually enjoyed running a business, which required him to learn how to keep the books. This led to Bill earning an MBA in finance and accounting. Bill was hired by Universal Accounting Center to teach their unique bookkeeping and tax preparation courses. He is the lead writer and editor for Universal Accounting’s Professional Tax Preparer course. Having worked several seasons as an experienced tax professional for H&R Block, Bill also started his own thriving bookkeeping, accounting and tax preparation business.
