RYAN LIES
MST, CPA, PARTNER

If you've had the chance to speak with Ryan, you know he loves being a CPA. He loves his work for many
reasons but the top are helping clients navigate complex problem solving and tradition. Taking these
reasons and merging it with the ability to help his clients while owning his business is a great source of
accomplishment.

Understanding clients' business, operational, and financial needs and translating those insights to help
his clients and develop efficient recommendations while reducing uncertainty is his ultimate reward.

Ryan holds near to his heart the tradition of the CPA profession as his Grandfather was also a CPA and
the CFO of Hart Shaffner Marx (clothing retailer).
Ryan is deeply proud to carry on the family tradition
of the CPA certification as a time honored business profession.

While earning his finance degree from DePaul at night, Ryan worked full-time during the day at the
Chicago Board of Trade. He honed his relentless work ethic in these formative years and dreamed of
owning his own business one day. Ryan takes great pride in being a small business owner and he leverages his ambitious spirit to bring exceptional results to his clients. He understands the entrepreneurial, business owner mindset and helps his clients to set up their businesses for success.
