Adam Decker, co-owner of Veros Dental, brings over 15 years of experience in dealing with practical issues business owners face. He truly enjoys working as a partner with the business owner and their practice in setting and achieving their personal and professional goals.

Professional Experience
As the business consulting partner with Veros Partners, an Indianapolis based accounting firm, Adam has advised hundreds of business owners on tax, accounting, finance, business sales/purchases, and other matters closely-held businesses encounter. Adam also assists in coordinating the personal financial goals of the owners of these businesses with the strategies and tactics each of these companies adopt and implement. In this capacity, Adam realized a great need for a coordinated resource for dental professionals that could address all of their financial needs for them, both professionally and personally. As a result, Veros Dental was formed to act as this resource. Adam’s prior experience also includes nearly five years of experience with former Big Five accounting firm Arthur Andersen, the start-up and operations as CFO of Veros Partners, as well as previous work in the health benefits and cabinet manufacturing industries.

Goals
Adam wants to continue to work with practice owners to help them minimize the mistakes that many others make. Through a regular program of monitoring and communication, Adam is confident those practices he works with will not fall to the common financial and tax pitfalls many business owners fail to avoid.  Adam continues to stayed apprised of news in the dental industry by being members of and involved with both the ASDA (American Student Dental Association) and IDERA (Indiana Dental Education and Resource Association).

Personal
Adam resides with his wife, Kendra, and two boys, Jonah and Jason, in Indianapolis. He is a 1997 graduate of Franklin College with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Business/Accounting. Adam successfully completed the CPA exam soon after graduation. In 2009, Adam also became a Certified Valuation Analyst (CVA) and a member of NACVA (National Association of Certified Valuation Analysts), after completing an in depth qualification process to perform business valuations.

He enjoys craft beer and following the Indianapolis Colts, the Cincinnati Reds, and the Indiana Pacers.  When you meet Adam, make a point to ask him about his various travel excursions!

Matt Haab, co-owner of Veros Dental, oversees the Wealth Management operations. Matt is a Certified Financial Planner, a Certified Public Accountant, and an Investment Advisor Representative of the firm.

Professional Experience
As the Wealth Management Partner with Veros Partners, an Indianapolis based accounting firm, Matt has advised hundreds of individuals and families – including a wide range of professionals, executives, owners of closely held companies and retirees – to help them achieve their financial goals. To assist them in attaining their goals, he takes the time to gain a full understanding of each person’s unique situation, and then works closely with them to help maximize their personal financial opportunities and make smart financial decisions. Matt is the partner in charge of the discretionary, active management of investment portfolios and he dedicates a significant portion of his time to applying the firm’s investment methodologies to those portfolios. Matt’s experience includes working with a wide range of individuals from those that are just starting to aggressively work towards their goals to those with a net worth over $10 million. From estate planning to retirement plan and 401(k) selection, Matt understands the importance of an integrated approach to finances.  His prior experience includes over three years with the Indianapolis office of Arthur Andersen, LLP. While at Arthur Andersen, Matt worked in the audit, tax, financial planning, and investment advising areas.

Goals
Matt seeks to work with dental professionals to help them fully integrate their financial strategies. He strives to consistently provide investment and personal financial strategies in seamless harmony with the dental practice’s financial results. As a firm that integrates the business and personal financial strategy through one platform, Matt feels he can be much more efficient, more useful and many steps ahead when compared to those dental professionals who must do the work themselves to coordinate a number of different advisors.

Personal
Meet the man with the endless energy!  Outside of work, Matt enjoys being active with his friends, the community and participating in anything related to sports, especially basketball and sand volleyball.

Matt lives on the south side of Indianapolis with his wife, Amy.  They have a very close family and he especially enjoys spending time with his 5 nieces and 1 nephew.

Amy Haab, CPA

Connect with Amy on LinkedIn

Amy has over 10 years of experience in the accounting industry. She enjoys working with small businesses by maintaining their books so that they can focus on their daily business operations and their patients. Amy is a Certified Public Accountant and a Notary Public.

Professional Experience
Amy works closely with business owners in maintaining their accounting records. This includes paying bills, issuing invoices to customers, assisting with payroll, reconciling bank accounts and any other specific client requests. Amy works directly with a number of dental practices in their regular (monthly or quarterly) accounting process. As the current Office Manager and Senior Advisor of Veros Partners, Amy is responsible for the accounting items for the firm as well as overseeing the day-to-day activities.

Amy’s prior experience includes over two and a half years with the Indianapolis office of Arthur Andersen, LLP in Indianapolis. While at Arthur Andersen, Amy worked in the audit area, primarily on one large public client based in Indianapolis.

Goals
Amy wants to continue to work closely with dental professionals to allow them to focus on revenue generation. By outsourcing the bookkeeping function, this allows dental professionals to see more patients and focus their resources on what they know best. The periodic financial statements that are provided to dentists are much more meaningful in assessing how a practice is performing than the individual receipts, sales transactions, payroll reports and other daily items.

Personal
Amy, the dedicated workout guru, resides with her husband Matt, co-owner of Veros Dental, on the south side of Indianapolis. She is a 1999 graduate with distinction from Ball State University with a Bachelor of Science degree in Accounting. Amy successfully completed the CPA exam soon thereafter.
