Jim was working in the defense industry before taking a left turn and launching a career as a CPA.

For the last 10 years, he’s overseen Lippincott’s global financial strategy and management. Based in New York, Jim lives close enough to the city to enjoy everything it has to offer, while being far enough away to enjoy the open country of the Catskills.

Being a Lippincott’er means:

Being part of a family.

For you, what makes Lippincott a special place to work?

The unique mix of creativity and analytical rigor that allows us to be truly impactful partners with our clients.

Have as much fun as you can without hurting anyone.

What is a little-known fact about Lippincott?

The breadth of the brands we’ve impacted.

What did school actually teach you?

In hindsight, school taught me about the tools I’d need later in life and how to use them — both in my career and personal life — and that it was up to me to use those tools to the best of my ability.
