Father-daughter CPAs - Christina and father, CSCPA member Andrew Siena, Jr., CPA

Siena and Sal Iannacone passed the CPA Exam together in 1984 before Iannacone went into industry. Thanks to the experience change we helped get through, Iannacone earned his CPA credential - at the same ceremony that Siena's daughter Christina did!

Getting the all-important CPA pin.
