David Stern, Principal
David has helped more than 200 small- and mid-sized firms manage their finances more effectively. A Certified Construction Industry Financial Professional (CCIFP®), his passion for this work began with a job at a salvage yard that bought and sold reusable building materials. There, he learned that a business can turn a profit and do meaningful work, the basis for his career ever since.
He focused on the construction industry because as he says, “I like the tangible product that contractors make. They take great pride in it, and you feel good playing a role to help make it happen.”
David is a contributing author to CFMA's Financial Management & Accounting for the Construction Industry ("The "Book"), Chapter 19, Benchmarking.
