Because (the Jump Start Class) is taught by CPAs, many people might assume that it's all about numbers (i.e., statistics). However, your course was so much more than that -- not only goals, but how to actually achieve them, using innovative and unusual (but effective) management concepts. In addition to teaching...

Gregg Swann, CPA is a graduate of Westmont College in Santa Barbara, California where he majored in religious studies. He has held a number of tax positions in the wine and high tech industries, and spent 5 years in the tax department of a Big 8 (at the time) accounting firm. When he is not working his way through the tax code, Gregg is most likely to be found contemplating Nietzsche or appreciating the view from his cabin in the mountains or from the flybridge on his boat on the Bay. Gregg is a CPA licensed by the California Board of Accountancy..

Kenneth Browne is a graduate of Pacific Union College in Angwin, California. After graduating with a BBA in 2014, he returned to the college to take on various full-time accounting roles. He has worked as a bookkeeper at a local winery and in his spare time volunteers to help low income families file their taxes. When he is not at the office, you are likely to find Kenneth watching football or experiencing the best of Napa Valley via local trails and dining establishments.

Dawn Marshall is a Napa native.  She briefly left the Napa Valley for a sojourn to Miami, Florida but returned to Napa to begin her professional career. Her first job was in a florist, before moving to high-end hospitality, then winery accounting and for the past 17 years she has been serving in a number of different roles in city government, culminating in the role of Human Resources and Administrative Manager. She is a two time recipient of “Award of Financial Reporting” by the Government Finance Officers Association. When she’s not helping “humans with resources”, she is likely to be gardening, quilting, or arranging items in her home to be more aesthetically pleasing. Dawn is the mother of 3 children – 2 sons and a daughter who all seem to have inherited some of her creative abilities. As a young woman, Dawn went off to purchase her first automobile, a Renault, at a local Napa automobile dealer. While she was unsuccessful in securing her dream automobile, she ultimately walked away with a first date with her now husband of 29 years.

He recently passed the CPA exam in California and has relocated from Southern California to his native Northern California.  He is a welcome (and timely) addition to the BDCo tax team.  His interests outside of the office include model trains and downhill skiing at Lake Tahoe. He also enjoys jigsaw puzzles and the opportunity to engage the creative side of his brain.  Dane’s favorite Napa Valley experience is of course the Napa Valley Wine Train. Dane is a CPA, licensed by the state of California.

Lisa Akrawi is a recent graduate of Walla Walla University where she earned a BBA with a concentration in accounting. She was drawn to accounting by her interest in numbers, organization, and balance.  The child of a multi-cultural family, Lisa sees accounting as another specialized language to learn and apply. The symmetry of accounting also appeals to her overall sense of aesthetics which she applies in her many creative pursuits.     As a former student at Pacific Union College, Lisa is happy to be back in the Napa Valley which she appreciates as the “perfect combination of city and country without being terribly suburban.”  She is a frequent traveler and hopes to return to Venice, Italy for a chance to learn more about its unique experiences.

Gabe Rotella is a graduate of Pacific Union College where he holds a BBA in Management and is working on his accounting degree. A former employee of the college, he has also spent many summers working in his family’s retail business in Vermont . He says accounting appeals to him because he can apply his talent at adding efficiencies and effectiveness to business processes. He is a sports fan (Go Patriots!) but on weekends you are likely to find him outdoors.

After earning a BA in Accounting from Golden Gate University, Leigh Meyers applied her talents to both public accounting and industry. She is an Enrolled Agent (EA) which is a designation issued by the IRS for tax practitioners who pass their examination and meet other requirements for ongoing training. She has worked with attorneys and vineyard management companies in the Napa Valley and comes to the wine industry with great perspective and an inherited appreciation for farming. Leigh says she was drawn to accounting because of her math skills which have always come easy to her. She works on the tax team and enjoys "untangling messes". She is an equal opportunity animal lover and has two cats and two dogs. When she is not at work, you will find her bicycling around the Napa Valley in what we can only imagine are the most stylish of outfits. 
Leigh MeyersTaxinista
Ina Larot is an Enrolled Agent (EA) with more than 15 years of experience as a tax accountant. She began her career with 9 years at a Big Four CPA firm where she specialized in trust taxation before moving on to local CPA firms where she expanded her experience to include business entities and individual taxes. A fervent traveler and an excellent cook, Ina has a daily adventure navigating her way across Jameson Canyon and up Highway 29. In her spare time, Ina is working to pass the CPA exam, when she is not being (pleasantly) distracted by her granddaughter.
