After starting my career at PricewaterhouseCoopers with a focus on external auditing, then working as an internal auditor for an investment bank, I founded my own firm. We specialize in nonprofit work and in providing general business services to artists. We currently have a staff of five and maintain strong out-of-firm relationships with consultant specialists. The Lowe Bureau, the bookkeeping arm of the company, is currently staffed by a CPA and several bookkeepers.
I was born and raised in New York City. I've been a licensed CPA for over fifteen years. I have an MBA in Finance and Marketing and a B.S. in Accountancy. I'm an Adjunct Professor of Accounting at Long Island University, where I teach Auditing and Accounting Information Systems. I conduct a seminar every year on The Business of Being an Artist. I'm active on the Not-for-Profit and Taxation of Individuals committees of the New York State Society of CPAs. I’m also known as "The Singing CPA."
As "The Singing CPA" I write and perform parodies of popular songs about the funny side of the tax, accounting and finance businesses. You can find me in past issues of The Wall Street Journal, The New York Times, The New York Daily News and CFO Magazine, among other news outlets. I’ve also been a guest on ABC Nightline and National Public Radio. I’ve been fortunate to be a featured entertainer at the annual New York CPA Conference, Business Professionals of America National Leadership Conference and the Hedge Fund Rocktoberfest. I also write and perform educational programs, involving music for children, in libraries and schools.
