WHY BKC?

“Prior to joining BKC, I had the opportunity to work with publicly traded companies and work for a start-up.  Both experiences were tremendous and helped me to appreciate the opportunities and challenges of the business owner.  But it wasn’t until I was able to tap into the incredible talent pool of hard-working and dedicated individuals here at the Firm, that I was able to realize what a complete service provider should be.  We continue to add quality professionals whenever they become available and it has been the number one reason for our success over the years.”
