In Good Hands

By Jamshed Behram Gandi, CPA

So it comes to pass: my last chapter president’s message. It has been quite a ride; a journey that will stay with me in my fondest memories.

Along the way, we had several accomplishments, mainly brought about by selfless individuals who continue to serve our chapter. We now have a Tax Committee under the able leadership of Laura Ross, chapter vice president. We also plan to renew our Real Estate Committee within the next few months. The MAP Committee had several meetings during the year to help the practitioner community in San Francisco address succession planning, an issue that I expect to play a major part in shaping the next decade or so. For me, the highlight was CalCPA’s 100-year anniversary with San Francisco playing host to the pomp, pageantry and revelry.

I am sure that our chapter, led by our next president, Karen Pfau-Martinez, and an active, dedicated board, will ascend to new heights. So I leave you in good hands. I have been given the opportunity to continue as a CalCPA Council member at large, and look forward to working to enhance our profession and membership in my new role.

Lastly, I thank Jane Dunbar and Gary Hammond for the support they provided to me in making all this happen.

Keep well and stay safe.
