Ed is the firm’s president. He joined RINA in 1982 after graduating from the University of California, Berkeley Haas School of Business and continued his education by earning a Masters degree from Golden Gate University in 1990.

Ed enjoys serving closely-held businesses where interaction with the entrepreneurial management team can lead to creative problem solving. Ed spent three years serving as V.P. of Finance for a winery where he gained valuable experience in the day-to-day operations of a business, negotiating with lenders and investigated financing and acquisition opportunities. Ed’s practice includes several not-for-profit organizations that provide various services within our communities. He also is a member of RINA's Not-for-Profit Group.

Ed is the International Committee Representative for MGI North America and Chairman of Mint Alliance/MGI Worldwide, a top 20 international accounting network of independent audit, tax and accounting firms, which brings together the expertise of some 6,000 professionals in over 300 locations around the world.  He is also an active member of an Alliance of CEOs group. 

Ed and Tracy are absolutely wonderful professional service providers. We just finished our June 30 year end engagement and it was the most efficient engagement ever — a testament to RINA. They provide audit and tax services and are very efficient. They also just assisted us with a difficult staff transition.
