About Mark
Biography
Following receipt of the degrees of Bachelor of Science in Accounting (Cum Laude) and Juris Doctor (Cum Laude) from Brigham Young University, I received a Masters of Law in Taxation from Denver University School of Law.
I passed the CPA exam in 1977 & worked as a tax accountant for Deloitte & Touche. I offer considerable experience in planning, implementing, and analyzing sophisticated estate and asset protection strategies.
I’m a very practical, customer-centric individual, and I pride myself on maximizing tax benefits & estate planning strategies for my clients. I have worked on thousands of cases over the years, and I’ll give you the personal attention you need.
