WHY WE LOVE SSB

 

Chris A. Gabrick, CPA, CMM, Principal

“SSB has allowed me to experience the ultimate accounting career. As a YSU senior, I met Greg Bestic at the Accounting Fair and suggested he look into participating in the YSU accounting internship program. After an exciting first tax season, SSB allowed me to develop my professional skills and grow personally as I progressed through supervisor and manager positions to ultimately become a partner with this dynamic organization. SSB continues to provide me opportunities for personal and professional growth within a framework that provides quality services, great team members and, most importantly, an understanding that family takes a major role in our lives.”

Jessie C. Wright, CPA, CVA, CGMA, Manager

“After working several years in both the private sector accounting and public accounting, I was looking to transition my career path to an organization that has a great reputation in the community, provides exceptional quality services to clients by maintaining high professional standards, fosters personal and professional growth of its team members and, finally, feels like a family. SSB has exceeded my expectations, and I am so proud to be a part of this distinguished and dynamic team.”

M. Constance Augustine-Thompson, CPA, Manager

“SSB is a unique place to work because it is not just a public accounting firm where people come to work and then go home. SSB is a family of people working together. Each team member is an important part of the process of what we do:  from our newest team member to our most experienced, from administrative and information support to accounting and taxation and everything in between. We all work together and support each other, not only to provide high quality service to our clients, but to help each team member be the best he or she can be—both personally and professionally. I truly am proud to be part of our outstanding team here at SSB.”
