We are confident she will continue to make valuable contributions to our firm as a partner.”
Joining the firm in 2013, Ryan works in the firm’s Wolfeboro office managing audits for a variety of business types, including closely held and nonprofit organizations. He also uses his tax expertise to provide planning and return preparation to both individual and business clients. Ryan graduated cum laude from the University of New Hampshire in 2012 with a Bachelor of Science in accounting. He is a member of the New Hampshire Society of Certified Public Accountants (NHSCPA) and the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA), and he is also the Treasurer on the Board of Directors for both the Wolfeboro Area Chamber of Commerce and the Wolfeboro Area Recreation Association (“The Nick”).
