Experience

1. Principal

   Fluence

   Mar 2000 — Present · Portland, OR, US

   As principal at Fluence, I help physicians and dentists maximize profitability and align their daily operations with larger business goals. In the constantly fluctuating accounting landscape, I keep my finger on the proverbial pulse of changing tax laws and regulatory requirements of doctors and dentists.I believe that practice consulting should be viewed holistically, and that there is no cookie-cutter solution to any given challenge. As such, I offer recommendations based on each individual client’s values and priorities. I help our clients figure out what makes sense for their business.
