He will lead the Captive Insurance task force, a group of four professionals who will work closely with the South Carolina Captive Insurance Association (SCCIA), a non-profit organization founded in July 2000.

“I am honored to assist the SCACPA in its efforts to better serve the state and its residents,” said Russell. “The efforts of the association, together with the SCCIA, will both foster communication among industry constituents and allow for growth of the accounting community as a whole.”
