Bio
Kive I. Strickoff, CPA, AIF®
I have been working with Bo for the past several years, on the 401K and Pension needs of our mutual clients. I have found his advise and follow-up to be superior, his demeanor to be both friendly and professional, and it continues to be a pleasure to work with him. I couldn't ask for a better "partner" to team with in the service of my clientele.
