TORONTO, ON – (December 17, 2025) – RSM is pleased to announce the 18 individual and six team winners for the firm’s 2025 First-Choice Advisor Awards program.
RSM’s First-Choice Advisor Awards program was developed based on employee feedback to recognize professionals who embody the firm’s first-choice advisor culture, strategy and values. The program honours high-performing individuals at various career stages from across Canada, the U.S., India and El Salvador who exemplify RSM’s “5 C’s”: caring, curious, collaborative, courageous, critical thinkers. Teams are recognized for making a significant impact in both external client service and firm client service areas.
“Congratulations to the 2025 First-Choice Advisor Award winners, who truly embody our firm’s values through their commitment to serving as first-choice advisors,” said Donna Sciarappa, RSM US LLP enterprise client experience leader, RSM US Foundation Board of Directors chair and executive sponsor of the First-Choice Advisor Awards program. “This program celebrates individuals and teams who make a meaningful impact with our clients, colleagues and communities, and I am honoured to recognize such an outstanding group of professionals.”
