After graduating from Georgia Tech with a degree in Electrical Engineering, Richard began his Cost Segregation career working for Ernst & Morris Consulting, one of the very first firms to specialize in Cost Segregation.
At Ernst & Morris, Richard learned the engineering-based Cost Segregation method and other best practices from the pioneers of the industry. The seeds for SegStream were planted when, as a junior Cost Seg engineer, Richard was introduced to the chaos of Microsoft Excel Cost Seg building models.
In 2017, after having completed Cost Segregation studies for more than a decade and having worked in roles including software user experience and software product management, Richard founded SegStream to tackle the software problems that had haunted him since his first run-ins with those infamous Excel models.
After completing initial product development, with a sole focus on professional Cost Seg engineers, he pivoted SegStream toward creation of the first commercially available custom Cost Segregation property modeling software, specifically designed to be useful for Accountants and Specialty Tax Professionals.
Richard leads SegStream product development with a strong belief that, by making the highest quality Cost Segregation studies accessible to anyone with sufficient tax knowledge and the desire to learn, Cost Seg can be democratized into a mainstream tax strategy for use by everyone, not just the wealthy and well-connected.
