Alex Rader
Sr. Tax Accountant
Who I Work With
The scale of businesses I work with range from small seasonal activities to extensive multi-faceted companies with intercompany workings. Because I come from a small town outside of a metropolitan area, the variety of businesses was vast, which helped me build a strong knowledge base. In addition to those businesses, I have also helped an array of individuals with their tax needs.My Specialty
My true specialty goes beyond the numbers and bottom lines of accounting. Understanding people and their wants and needs in life is something that I have expertly tuned into as I’ve grown. You can’t help people unless you can understand people. However, when it comes to accounting, I grew up and became an accountant in the OH, WV, PA tri-state area, I was exposed to the Marcellus Shale natural gas boom. Managing and projecting natural resource royalties became something I was very interested in. In addition to that, real estate accounting is another area I have excelled in.

When I’m Not at Work
My family and I live a very active lifestyle. I have a wife and 2 young sons. I try to join as many different adult sport leagues as I can, and I enjoy going to the gym nearly every day. We recently moved to Wilmington, NC and are loving the outdoor/beach life. My wife and I also love to go see live music.
The Bottom Line
“The accounting/tax business is more than maximizing profits and projecting income. It’s a people business. It’s about understanding the people behind the financial statements and helping them maximize their entire life, not just their earnings.”
