i had just come off a really bad tax season.<\/p>\n

this was about nine\u00a0years ago now, and i knew there had to be a better way. i left a mid-sized firm, with seven partners and about 50 other employ\u00adees and i joined my dad\u2019s firm \u2014 literally and figuratively. figu\u00adratively, because many of his technology and processes were \u201cold school.\u201d<\/p>\n

i was tired of working part-time and not being treated like a contributing member of the firm. my family was young. my son was four years old and my daughter was six. my son was in the process of getting ready for full-time kindergarten and things were just changing in my life. i no longer felt the need to only work part-time, so it seemed like the right time.
