Life Beyond the Office

Stuart grew up in Charlotte, North Carolina, where he spent much of his childhood mountain biking and white water rafting—early experiences that shaped his appreciation for the outdoors. 

Today, he remains an avid snowboarder and rafter. One of his most memorable adventures was a self-guided rafting trip through Grand Canyon National Park after winning a permit through the state lottery—an experience he considers unforgettable. At home, he shares life with his girlfriend and their three dogs, including a therapy dog who supports her practice. 

Translating Complexity into Plain Language

One of Stuart’s distinctive strengths is his ability to explain technical financial concepts in plain language without oversimplifying them. This skill helps clients fully understand their position while maintaining the nuance necessary for sound decision-making.

Our Amazing Team Members

Wanna Talk About Your Small Business?

Please use the form below to tell us a little about yourself, and what you have going on with your small business or 1099 contractor gig. WCG CPAs & Advisors are small business CPAs, tax professionals and consultants, and we look forward to talking to you!

We typically schedule a 20-minute complimentary quick chat with one of our Partners or Senior Tax Professionals to determine if we are a good fit for each other, and how an engagement with our team looks. Tax returns only? Business advisory? Tax prep, and more importantly tax strategy and planning?

Should we need to schedule an additional consultation, our fee is $250 for 40 minutes. Fun! If we decide to press forward with a Business Advisory or Tax Patrol Services engagement, we will credit the consultation fee towards those services.

Appointments are typically held through Microsoft Teams and are scheduled on weekdays during the work day. Yes, we can easily accommodate nights and weekends, but those are reluctantly agreed to after some eye-rolling and complaining. Additionally, our schedules are more compressed during tax season (who would have thought, right?).

Shockingly we will return all appointment requests via email with 24-36 hours weather-permitting, or perhaps a phone call (if the moment strikes us). No black holes here! In a hurry, please call us at 719-387-9800.
