About Jeffrey Russell

Two roads diverged in a wood, and I— / I took the one less traveled by,/ And that has made all the difference.” (18-20). Frost, Robert. “The Road Not Taken.” Mountain Interval. 1916.20+ years of education and experience ranging from manufacturing engineering, supply chain management, software and service enterprise applications, intellectual property, contracts law and negotiation represents a unique array of expertise. While my portfolio as a leader in diversified tax, audit, and consulting firm certainly constitutes a road less traveled, each of the multifarious elements of my background help me understand, evaluate, and develop strategies and solutions to meet industry and client needs with context for evolving business strategies and changing landscapes. We all live in a volatile, uncertain, complex, and ambiguous world. The greatest value we can bring our clients is to help navigate it.As a leader in the firm, I bring a unique blend of expertise and perspective that continues to serve the firm in core areas best represented by my three key roles. The first is Industry leadership—Technology, Life Sciences, Professional Services, Field Service—where I continue to focus on holistic solutions and service capabilities to support clients with true domain expertise. Second, I lead the Armanino Austin Office where my responsibilities include growing our presence in the market, advancing our strong relationship with The University of Texas at Austin and other local institutions, as well as ensuring we preserve what makes us different in an exciting and thriving market. Lastly, I lead our Technology Consulting Practice Nationally and sit on the Armanino Consulting Executive Leadership Team to steer and guide our continued evolution and growth to further our purpose of making a positive impact on the lives of our clients, employees, and our communities. As a dynamic leader who understands that people are what create success in professional services, I strive to build on our incredible talent capital and better ourselves and our business by growing our people adding to our DNA with new talent who improves an already special group. With a track record of building teams purposefully and successfully I endeavor to bring Armanino further into the leader category in our industry. I love what I do, I cherish the people with whom I am able to do it, and I am thrilled to continue to bring our unique caliber and quality of people to our clients and communities.
