This has been a full month for the abip team! Several of our professionals attended national conferences bringing back fresh insights and innovative ideas. Eric, Rosemary, Terri, Missy, and Alphonso represented us at the annual CCH Connections Conference in San Diego. While Courtney, Teresa, Chris, Jordan, and Patrick attended the Intuit Conference in Las Vegas. We wrapped up a busy season with a well-deserved firm-wide happy hour and got into the Halloween spirit with a fun costume contest across our offices.

As the holiday season begins, we’re excited for another month of teamwork, accomplishments, and celebrating the people who make abip shine.
