Chris Gallo

Chris serves as the Director of Outsourced Business Accounting, leading a team of 85 people that works directly with businesses to handle all financial accounting needs, assisting with accounts payable, month-end close, budgeting, forecasting, cashflow, new accounting systems, sales tax and technology — as well as CFO-level services.

With more than two decades of experience, Chris has built a team of accounting professionals that is one of the leaders in the nation in capability and service. Because of his experience building and leading a successful accounting practice, Chris often teaches for the AICPA and other leading national associations and institutes.

Chris received his Bachelor of Science degree from the University of Northern Iowa School of Business. He began his career working on Capitol Hill in Washington, DC, as a Staff Assistant for F. James Sensenbrenner (who, at the time, was the Chairman of the Judiciary Committee for the United States House of Representatives). Working as a liaison between federal government and state and local governments, Chris has expertise in state and local tax (SALT) code and — more importantly — expertise in state and local audit defense and business accounting.

In his free time, Chris enjoys watching his kids play sports, traveling with his family and spending as much time fishing as he can.
