Brian joined the firm in 2001 and has devoted much of his career with Eide Bailly serving the accounting needs of public sector clients, including local governmental entities, public schools, charter schools, as well as colleges, universities and utility cooperatives. To support Eide Bailly's commitment to staff development, Brian offers continuing education opportunities by serving as an instructor for firmwide governmental trainings. Brian is a regular speaker on topics impacting local governments including how to prepare for a government audit and how to read the financial statements as a governing body member.

When you work with Brian, you get a partner who is intent on listening and allowing you to fully articulate your concerns. While that might mean he seems quiet at times, it also means your goals will be completely understood and attended to. Brian will always be responsive to your inquiries, as he also takes pride in responding within 24 hours to each of his clients.

Away from the office, you'll often find Brian at the lacrosse field cheering on his daughter or interacting with his beloved German Shepherd. He is also a proud supporter of his son as he is in his sophomore year at Kansas State University studying industrial engineering. He and his wife both love to travel and make a point of escaping town a few times each year (sometimes, they even bring the kids). During the summer, the whole family relishes time at the lake or simply gathering around the bonfire on the back patio with friends.
