“Because of my background in mechanical engineering I have always enjoyed working with clients who are involved in manufacturing and high tech. I am often impressed with their creativity. If my help in improving their SRED tax credits results in more opportunities for them to utilize this creativity and produce highly skilled jobs I feel like I have made an important contribution to them and to our local economy.”
