AP Group specializes in real estate and construction clients but serves a wide array of industries. Services include a full range of audit, review, compilation, tax, mergers/acquisitions and accounting with emphasis on providing clients with the information necessary to successfully manage their everyday decisions.

All new partners are trusted advisors to clients and employees and add their own skills, talents and unique experiences to the firm. They have assisted their clients through business sales, business acquisitions and succession planning as well as proactive day-to-day financial and tax planning.  

Shannon is a past president of the Construction Financial Management Association and is a great resource to the firm in marketing and recruiting efforts. 

Emilee manages the firm’s IT and is an integral part of AP Group’s research and new-hire training.  

Jared is a mentor to employees and clients and also assists with recruiting, marketing, quality control and training.

Jackie leads the firm’s quality control initiatives and advises clients through business sales.  

Angie concludes, “Our goal for the firm is to continue being proactive and going above and beyond for our clients, but also to be a place for CPAs to learn and grow. Our partner team is dedicated to this goal.”
