In this inspiring episode of VoQuest, host C.W. Elliott and co-host Gerti sit down with tax attorney Daniel Tirle to explore one of the most remarkable career journeys you'll ever hear. From choosing his college major via village internet in Romania to becoming the tax attorney who saved a client $9 million, Daniel's story is a masterclass in divine guidance, anti-procrastination, and finding your unique professional niche.

Daniel reveals how he discovered the perfect career "bullseye"—the intersection where lawyers who don't understand numbers meet accountants who don't understand law. As both a CPA and attorney, he's become the human translator in high-stakes meetings, speaking the languages of financial advisors, CPAs, estate planners, and legal teams.

Discover the power of starting early (inspired by the movie "Iron Will"), the dangers of social media and procrastination for young professionals, and how one prayer in a parking lot led to a breakthrough solution that stumped the nation's top tax experts. Daniel's journey from translator at a conference to building tax departments demonstrates how relationships, faithfulness in small things, and trusting God's guidance can create extraordinary career opportunities.

Key Topics:

  • Why anti-procrastination is a career superpower
  • How to find your professional Venn diagram
  • The immigrant advantage in networking and relationships
  • Why starting without a phone/social media accelerated success
  • Building expertise through YouTube and self-directed learning
