Craig H Field CPA ABV
PARTNER
I began my career at Cooper & Lybrand (now PWC) in Johannesburg, South Africa in 1983. Qualified as a CA (SA) by 1991 and rose to the level of senior manager before leaving to start in my own practice in 1997. Between 1997 and 2008 I was involved in several mergers and acquisitions, participated in a public listing and served on the Board of a public listed company as Financial Director.
In 2008 my family and I moved to Charlotte, North Carolina. I soon discovered my qualifications meant nothing Stateside so I started out working for a tax preparation business followed by a CPA firm from 2013 to 2018. During this time I went back to school, wrote the Series 65 exam and in 2015 wrote the CPA, ABV and CFP exams, all of which I passed on my first attempt.
In 2019 I started out on my own and in October 2020 concluded a merger with a well established CPA firm, Ryan Geer & Co PA, to form Ryan Geer Field & Rhodes PLLC.
During my career I have advised mostly business clients on business, tax and accounting matters, performed audits and more recently business valuations and corporate finance. My chosen areas of focus going forward are business valuations, corporate finance and personal financial planning.
