    • Naturally enjoy coaching and developing other professionals.
    • Build long-term client relationships and want to become a trusted advisor beyond annual tax compliance.
    • Look proactively for planning opportunities rather than simply reacting to deadlines.
    • Enjoy researching and solving challenging tax issues.
    • Value a collaborative environment where team members support one another.
