Dallas, Texas – July 09, 2025
8020 Consulting, a leader in finance and accounting consulting, welcomes Luke Mattorano as Managing Director of its Dallas, Texas office. This is the company’s first geographic expansion and represents 8020 Consulting’s growth strategy and commitment to servicing its clients, consultants, and the communities in which they operate. Mattorano will be instrumental in establishing the 8020 brand in the market by building strong relationships with clients and identifying opportunities for the company’s expert consultants. He’ll also partner with local associations to develop strategic marketplace collaborations that cater to area finance and accounting leaders.
“8020 Consulting is committed to being an integral part of the Dallas-Fort Worth business community and Luke’s long-standing connections in the region coupled with his strong finance, accounting, and technology background make him uniquely qualified to lead the market,” said Kellen Smith, CEO of 8020 Consulting. “Luke is a natural team builder. His skills at mentoring and fostering collective success will be critical for growing 8020’s platform and providing opportunities for local consulting talent. We’re excited to witness Luke’s successes as he builds the company’s presence in the region.”
Mattorano has over two decades of experience helping companies drive enterprise value and improve operational performance across a wide range of industries including healthcare, staffing, manufacturing, retail, and consumer products. He has served as a CFO, led finance and accounting functions, executed large-scale technology implementations, and managed complex business transformations. Mattorano has worked as both an operator and an advisor, giving him a unique perspective on what clients need, and how to align the right people and processes to efficiently meet those needs. He holds an B.A. in Accounting and an M.S. in Finance from Texas A&M. He started his career in Audit at Arthur Andersen before moving to KPMG, where he worked in transaction advisory and restructuring prior to moving into industry, where he served in a variety of leadership roles, including CFO.
“What immediately resonated with me about 8020 Consulting is its business model, which is built around delivering high-impact financial and accounting consulting services through experienced, hands-on professionals. I’ve always believed in the value of practical, results-driven support—not theoretical advice—and 8020 exemplifies that philosophy,” said Mattorano. “I’m excited by the opportunity to build something meaningful in Dallas and to help solve tough client challenges while growing a trusted consulting brand in a market I know well.”
Smith added, “Over the past 12 years, 8020 Consulting has built a tenured team of finance and accounting experts in our Los Angeles headquarters. With Luke as Managing Director, we’ll work off that strong foundation to do the same in Dallas-Fort Worth and beyond.”
Mattorano’s immediate goal is to establish a strong client base by building trusted relationships and demonstrating the value 8020 brings to the table. Longer term, he plans to help make Dallas one of the firm’s most successful and dynamic markets by consistently delivering great outcomes for its clients. Learn more and connect with Mattorano here.
