The Disruptors
With Liz Farr

What would work look like if it reflected your passions? “Imagine,” says Sean Duncan, CPA, “if you worked with the people that you loved working with, talking about the things that you love talking about, and you made a living and helped them?” As Duncan says, “That’s just freakin' awesome!” 

Duncan was working at a large regional firm back in 2006 when he noticed that many small business clients were asking him for advice, but they couldn’t afford the fees of a large firm. So he started his firm out of “kind of this gut feel” of wanting to help those small business clients. Over the years, his firm, SMD Consulting and Accounting, has developed a specialty in working with video game developers, a special passion of Duncan's.
