John brings decades of experience in corporate tax and advisory services. He began his career in corporate tax roles with several large, nationally recognized organizations, where he developed a strong foundation in complex tax and financial matters.

In 1993, John co-founded a regional accounting firm, where he spent more than 30 years serving local entrepreneurs and small to mid-sized businesses across a broad range of industries. His work has consistently focused on providing practical, strategic guidance tailored to each client’s goals.

Beyond his client work, John is deeply committed to education and community service. He served for over 10 years as an adjunct faculty member at the College of Lake County and continues to support small nonprofit organizations as a board financial officer and trusted financial advisor.

John passed the Illinois CPA exam in 1977, earned a Master of Science in Taxation from DePaul University in 1982, and graduated from the College of Financial Planning in 1989 as a Certified Financial Planner.

We are excited to have John join Gordon J. Maier & Company as a Partner and look forward to the experience, insight, and dedication he brings to our clients.
