About Thomas Klein

I’m a CPA with a background in internal audit, public accounting, financial statement preparation, GAAP, and statutory accounting principles. I draw on my varied experience to understand and communicate complexity in simpler terms for my peers and find ways to improve processes for greater efficiency and sustainability. Supporting the professional development of those I work with is a priority.I subscribe to and value the principles of servant leadership and accountability, with an eagerness to mentor, teach, and share the spotlight, if not step out of it altogether. I learned early on what it takes to effectively manage projects and people, and I continue to capitalize on those strengths and my interpersonal skills to be a trusted client advisor and a reliable leader.
