George Nissan

Controller

George graduated from DePaul University with a master’s in taxation after earning a Bachelor of Science in Accounting from Northeastern Illinois University. He worked with Mike Kolar & Associates (since rebranded to Mr. Refund). The firm was led by Mike Kolar, CPA (a former NASD auditor).
George then worked at DialogTech, a Twilio competitor in the call tracking analytics space. There he was a generalist and assisted in fundraising from the $4M Series A through Series E. Total raised was $66M. The Company grew from 23 to 150 employees. George wanted to see the growth through acquisition and became the Manager of Tax and Compliance towards the later years at DialogTech.
In 2017 George moved to BenchPrep as Director of Finance. In the 2 years there, BenchPrep grew from 30 employees and $3.5M in revenue to 105 employees and $14M revenue.
