A little about our guests.
Craig was born in Indianapolis, IN and grew up in Orlando, FL in the middle of seven other brothers and sisters. Craig has twin brother. Belsis came to the US when she was 4 years as part of the Mariel Boat Lift in 1980. Belsis grew up in Chicago and Hialeah, FL. The opposite of Craig as an only child.
Belsis and Craig are married and have been in business together for 10 years. They have 2 boys, ages 17 and 14. Their younger son looks like he will be following in his parents’ entrepreneurial footsteps. Belsis is looking forward (in about 10 years or so) to having granddaughters to dress up!
A little about their business.
Craig is an Enrolled Agent and has written 12 books on taxation as well as numerous articles in national publications on business and taxes. He has been practicing accounting for 22 years and can practice before the Internal Revenue Service as well as being admitted to the United States Tax Court.
Belsis is a Certified Public Bookkeeper and a QuickBooks Professional Advisor. But her real passion and main focus at CWSEAPA is as the tech guru. She created the websites for the company (filled with great tax and business information) and is the communications and public relations for the firm.
One piece of advice (the nutshell version)
Play to your strengths and be very patient. Watch baseball – watching baseball makes you more patient.
