After working for a large local firm in Seattle for several years, Bea opened her own small firm in 1982. Bea’s clients include small businesses in various industries, primarily real estate, professional services and automotive. These small businesses range from one location shops to multi-state operations. Bea has been an active volunteer for the accounting profession, serving as former President for the Washington Society of CPAs, volunteer and board member for various nonprofits and local government, and being a champion for interstate mobility for CPAs and small businesses alike. Bea has also served as a member of the AICPA Board of Directors and the PCPS Executive Committee. Bea is a proud graduate of the University of Washington (go Dawgs!), who loves family, travel, great restaurants, theater, music, comedy and political intrigue.
