He currently serves on the Pennsylvania CPA Journal Editorial Board, has authored and co-authored numerous articles and blog posts for the Journal, and has been interviewed for video and podcast content. Jim also serves on the steering committee for the Association for Corporate Growth’s Private Equity Executives Roundtable (ACG PEER). He is a past board member of two other professional associations in the Greater Philadelphia business community and has delivered numerous presentations and panel discussions throughout his career.
