We’re thrilled to recognize Nick Lee, CPA, CCIFP, for his recent appointment as Treasurer of Helping Hounds Dog Rescue of Syracuse—a role that reflects both his professional excellence and his deep commitment to community service.
Helping Hounds Dog Rescue is a vital organization in Central New York, dedicated to connecting homeless dogs with loving families. Nick’s decision to share his time and financial expertise with such a meaningful cause speaks directly to the values we strive to uphold as a company: leadership, stewardship, and compassion.
Nick brings more than seven years of construction-focused accounting experience, spanning both public and private roles. He earned his BS in Accounting from Le Moyne College in Syracuse, NY, and holds the prestigious Certified Construction Industry Financial Professional (CCIFP) credential—an industry-recognized certification rooted in the financial competencies needed to guide construction businesses through today’s competitive environment.
At Bowers, Nick serves as an Audit Manager, partnering with clients to strengthen financial operations so they can focus on what they do best: building. His work helps construction businesses effectively manage their finances, allocate resources thoughtfully, and make confident, informed decisions.
Nick’s technical knowledge, paired with his practical understanding of the construction industry, makes him an invaluable asset to our team—and now, to Helping Hounds Dog Rescue as well.
Nick’s volunteer work reflects his belief that strong communities are built not only through business, but through service. As Treasurer, he will help ensure Helping Hounds has the financial stewardship needed to continue its lifesaving mission.
We’re proud to celebrate this achievement with you and grateful for the way you represent our values every day.
