Accounting for Artists

A special business seminar for our U.S. based members!

Nitin Bhojraj carefully walks the tightrope between the worlds of business and art.  In his role as a CPA, Nitin has taught accounting at multiple universities in the Chicago area, prepared a variety of tax returns, assisted individuals and small businesses with financial planning, and presented forensic accounting and fraud examination topics at accounting conferences.  As an artist, Nitin writes and illustrates "Incremental Maturity," an accounting themed one-panel comic that has been published in 11 different accounting industry magazines, reaching about 140,000 industry professionals.  Nitin joined ISCA in 2020 and has been improving his skills ever since through workshops, ISCA competitions, instructional books, and YouTube tutorials starring many of you.  

Nitin will share his knowledge on individual taxation and financial planning, as a thank you to all the ISCA members who have helped him improve his drawing skills along his journey.  If you have an accounting question that you want Nitin to address at the convention, send him a direct message on Instagram - @NitinDrawsThings, an email to nitin1217@gmail.com, or find him in person at any Chicago area comic convention dressed as Kylo Ren.
