“Knowing that WM has behind it a substantial amount of technical folks that can help that have been in the Big Four, in National Practice, even potentially the FASB—know that you have that backdrop is a huge advantage.”

As the VP of Finance and Corporate Controller, Andy oversaw a range of complex transactions and technical accounting matters. He leaned on WM when his company was still privately held but looking to go public. Amid rapid change and company growth, he was able to tap into WM’s experience with advising companies on accessing the public markets. WM and Andy seamlessly navigated the new accounting standards for revenue recognition and lease accounting as well as the accounting for complex transactions including business combinations. WM’s technical expert team has served as a trusted partner to Andy for almost 10 years.
