As Principal of W3 Global Accounting, I provide comprehensive accounting, tax, finance, estate planning, and business advisory services to closely held businesses across a wide range of industries. I also assist individual clients with income tax planning and estate strategies designed to protect and grow their financial legacy.
My academic background includes a Bachelor of Science in Mathematics and a Master of Business Administration with a concentration in Finance from The University of Akron. After completing my education, I proudly served seven years on active duty in the U.S. Army, where I established and managed a non-appropriated fund accounting office for the United States Army in Europe.
Following my return to the U.S., I co-founded Winer + Bevilacqua (now W3 Global Accounting) alongside my longtime friend, Ron Winer. In 2001, I also established W3 Wealth Management, LLC—a financial services and investment firm now led by my son, Frank Bevilacqua II, and Shelby Morgan.
In addition to being a Certified Structured Settlement Specialist (CSSS), I was honored as the George W. Daverio School of Accountancy’s Outstanding Accounting Professional in 2008. I’ve had the privilege of presenting on topics such as estate and succession planning to a wide variety of professional organizations.
Community involvement has always been a cornerstone of my life. I currently serve on the board of directors for the Akron Zoo and chair The University of Akron Foundation’s Gift and Estate Planning Committee. My past service includes board leadership roles with Portage Country Club, The University of Akron’s School of Accountancy Advisory Board, and the Akron Children’s Hospital Foundation. I’ve also supported organizations such as the American Heart Association, St. Hilary Parish, and the Catholic Community Foundation’s Rooted in Faith – Forward in Hope Oversight Committee.
Outside of work, I’ve been happily married to my wife, Marie, for over 45 years. We still enjoy going on dates and spending time with our growing family, which includes three adult children and four beloved granddaughters—whom I admittedly enjoy spoiling. When I’m not with family or serving clients, you’ll likely find me on the golf course, enjoying one of my favorite pastimes.
