Spring 2017 Spotlight Employee: Kelly Raso, CPA

Our firm spotlight this quarter is on Kelly Raso, CPA.

In 1984, Kelly earned her B.S. in accounting from Rider University, grad­uating with honors. She joined Alloy Sil­verstein in 1986 and became an associate partner in 2008. Kelly is licensed in both New Jersey and Pennsylvania and is a member of the New Jersey Society of CPAs and American Institute of CPAs.

Celebrating her 30th anniversary with Al­loy Silverstein last year, Kelly has shared her tax and accounting expertise with a vari­ety of closely-held and family businesses throughout her career, particularly to busi­ness owners in the real estate, retail, profes­sional service, and not-for-profit industries. As a business advisor, she looks forward to working with each of her clients on a daily basis as there is always a new challenge to accomplish in helping them attain their goals when it comes to tax, growth, and general business matters.

Not only is Kelly the lead partner in our Hammonton, NJ location, but she is a past president of the Greater Hammonton Cham­ber of Commerce, serving from May 2013 – May 2015, and remains on their Board of Trustees. In addition, Kelly is a member of the Business Advisory Council for Atlantic County Community College.

Internally at the firm, she serves as a member of the firm’s Indi­vidual Tax Committee and is involved with many of the Human Re­sources respon­sibilities on behalf of Alloy Silverstein’s team members. Kelly has been active for many years with the firm’s growing in­volvement in fundrais­ing for the American Heart Association along with our Adopt A Family program at Alloy Silver­stein’s Hammonton office loca­tion. In recent years, she has been recog­nized by both SNJ Busi­ness People and South Jersey Biz as a top woman in business in South Jersey.

Kelly, a resident of Hammonton, enjoys traveling and spending time with her hus­band and two daughters. Her other hobbies include exercise and physical fitness. Due to her love for horses, she recently began horseback riding lessons. Kelly is also a wine enthusiast and enjoys a fine glass of wine, especially from her family’s home­made collection.
