Glenn Harper started his Tax and Consulting career in December of 1989, while enrolled at The Ohio State University. Upon graduating from OSU in 1991, he continued his pursuit of bringing the intangibles to the accounting and consulting industry. After attaining his CPA in 1994, he continued to evolve and change the way he wanted CPAs to be perceived/used for their clients. The fundamental premise for his motivation is simply to help people. Being able to bring the insight needed to address client’s questions, issues, and problems; the ability to bring clarity, different perspectives, and to support clients is what makes Glenn and his team stand out among other CPA’s.
