Professional life: My family has owned a consulting practice, Gormican, P.C., for as long as I can remember. In high school, I had the opportunity to help my father out with his accounting and tax practice during busy seasons and loved being part of it. I enjoyed my exposure to my family’s business, so it made sense to pursue accounting in college. I spent my collegiate school years interning at various companies to determine what would be the best fit after completing my schooling.
I began my professional career as an auditor at Deloitte & Touche (Big 4 Accounting firm) specializing in external audits of mutual funds, retail, women’s science, biotech and benefit plans. After that, I joined Walter & Shuffain (Regional Accounting firm) as a tax accountant and assisted in the preparation of state and federal tax returns for individuals, corporate, partnerships and trusts. Both firms were a pleasure to work for at that stage in my career, but in the end, a traditional CPA firm was not for me. I wanted to work directly with the clients and build up a client base that was made up of people that I liked to work with, not had to work with. I essentially wanted to do the same style work my father had done with his clients for years!
Despite working along side my father, I’m not your parent’s accountant. In college, I started slowly building up my client base on the side and now nearly two decades later, I can still say that I love what I do! I have such a passion and enthusiasm for this that it helps create and foster long-term relationships with my clients. I’m focused on going above and beyond to ensure that I do not just prepare the work for you, but to educate you to make informed decisions as it relates to each personal situation going forward. I feel like this approach works best for me and nearly every client has come from a referral from a current client. That says a lot to me about the value that I bring!
Education & Certifications: I hold a Masters of Science in Accounting (MSA) and Bachelor of Science in Business Administration (BSBA) from Stonehill College. I am a Certified Public Accountant who is licensed in Massachusetts and am an active member of the Massachusetts Society of Certified Public Accountants.
Personal life: I love spending time with my daughter, son, husband and our crazy cat, who all still love me despite my lack of culinary and housekeeping skills! I enjoy traveling the world, skiing through the long New England winters and volunteering with my local Women’s Club. In addition, I like to take millions of pictures of our everyday life so that I can make scrapbooks at some point to remember all of the #littlethings in life. I’m years behind on this project, but such is life 🙂
