Since beginning his career at Yount Hyde Barbour in 1991, Kevin has been focused on helping construction companies, developers and real estate firms maximize their financial success. He has a bachelor’s degree in business and economics from Randolph-Macon College.
In addition to being a member of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants as well as the Virginia Society of Certified Public Accountants, he is an active member of several construction trade associations. These include the Blue Ridge Chapter of CFMA, ABC of Virginia, American Subcontractors Association, the local chapter of the National Association of Homebuilders, and Construction Industry CPAs/Consultants Association (CICPAC). Kevin is also the appointed financial advisor to the AGC Virginia Board of Directors as well as the Treasurer of the AGC Valley District.
Kevin is highly experienced in delivering a broad range of accounting and business advisory services to construction contractors, including tax planning and filing and succession planning. Through his active participation in various construction trade associations, he has developed a keen understanding of industry trends and issues.
Kevin excels in advising construction businesses and their owners on ways to minimize taxes and achieve their objectives. Because of his extensive network of community contacts, he is especially effective at facilitating relationships with bankers, bonding agents, sureties, and other professionals who can provide the credit and services contractors and developers need to succeed. He also is skilled at helping YHB clients choose business structures and accounting methods that lift their bottom lines.
As Kevin sees it, the key to effective client service is developing a good relationship with a business’s owners and managers. So, whatever the purpose of an engagement, he begins by sitting down with you to discuss your needs and objectives and learn how you operate. By listening carefully, he is better able to identify issues to address and changes to make so that you not only achieve your objectives, but also maximize your success.
In addition to spending time with his wife, Lawrie, daughter (Abby), son (Ben), and mini golden doodle buddy (Archie), Kevin enjoys golfing and traveling.
