ADMINISTRATIVE TEAM
DAVID RABINOWITZ
Operations Manager
David Rabinowitz started his professional career as a small business owner after his stint at UT here in Austin. His background with computer hardware and software during that time made him a good fit for several technology, support and project management positions with companies like USAA, Southwest Research Institute and the Armstrong Laboratory of the U.S. Air Force. He came on in 2015 as Office Manager to fill an immediate need, and has found that the environment of Sweeten CPA and the day to day interactions he has with our clients gives him immense satisfaction and the opportunity to exercise his wit and passion for problem solving. He is also one heck of a poker player.
Lori Wasson has over two decades of experience in accounting, including ten years managing her husband’s roofing company, giving her an intimate understanding of small businesses and their books. As Sweeten CPA’s bookkeeper, she wrangles accounts receivable, 1099s, POAs, and many other bookkeeping and administrative tasks. In her spare time, she loves snuggling up with a warm blanket, her fluffy cats, and a warm and fuzzy novel.

We welcomed Ryan McDonald to our team in 2022. After 20 years of mastering the restaurant industry, he’s taking his customer service and interpersonal skills to a new field. Ryan processes through documents and special projects like it’s rush dinner service. More than his love for helping, he loves to be a team player that makes you laugh. Ryan did not 86 his love of food when he changed industries, though! During off hours, he can be found cooking and experimenting with different cuisines. He is always excited to take or give recipe suggestions!
