Zach Lilligcpa

Associate

Chicago

I was born and raised in the north suburbs of Chicago. I graduated from Carthage College in Kenosha, WI with a double major in Accounting and Finance. While at Carthage, I was a 4-year member of the nationally ranked Men’s Volleyball team where I was a 2x All-American Middle blocker. I began my career at Prosperity Partners in January of 2020 right before the pandemic as a Tax Associate and have slowly shifted to the accounting side while retaining some tax work. Prosperity Partners has allowed me the opportunity to stay remote and I currently live in Nashville, Tennessee enjoying the sun.

EXPERTISE: GAAP; Financial statement preparation; Individual, Partnership, and Corporate Tax

  • Favorite thing about Prosperity Partners: The company culture, our outings are always a blast. You wouldn’t guess it but, accountants can have a good time.
  • Favorite vacation you’ve taken: Going hiking in Sedona and the Grand Canyon. The Midwest is pretty flat so seeing the Grand Canyon and the red rocks of Sedona was an incredible experience.
  • What is your side gig/passion project/hobby? Video Games, I enjoy a variety of PC games including old school Runescape, Hogwarts Legacy, and Valorant
  • Favorite movie quote: Monty Python and the Holy Grail: “She turned me into a newt! ……. It got better…”
  • I have an irrational fear of: Small spaces. I’m a bit too tall for narrow caves or small basements.
  • Favorite workout or sport to play? Volleyball, although the prime of my career may be over, I try to keep up by playing in local leagues and tournaments where possible.
