… these are just a few of the important topics and questions that were covered this week as our aspiring entrepreneurs met with Russell Voudrie, CPA (Partner) at West & Company, LLC & Edwardsville CEO board member!

While discussing taxes can be daunting, Russell did an excellent job of breaking it down for all of us. He encouraged students to remember one key takeaway…

CEO students are now armed with a baseline understanding of taxes and have a place to begin when exploring their own personal finances and tax obligations.

Russell, thank you so much for taking the time to speak with our students. We are so lucky to have you as a board member and to have West & Co as a valued investor. You are a CPA rockstar!!!
