Given his experience with international tax matters Gosch will continue to make annual trips to Europe, offering presentations and lectures throughout several European countries including Germany and France.

Gosch has 30 years of experience in the accounting profession and serves clients in the international, technology, manufacturing, digital media, venture backed companies and consumer products areas.

Prior to starting his public practice in 1999, Gosch served as group and division controller for a Fortune 500 company both domestically and overseas. He was also a CFO with emerging companies and participated in the IPO of advanced technology firms. Gosch began his career with Ernst & Young.

He’s a licensed CPA in California and New York and earned a Bachelor’s Degree in Finance from Lehigh University and a Master’s Degree in Accounting from Pennsylvania State University.
