As our original Chief Comfort Officer, Harley provided a calm presence and emotional support to our team with her beautiful husky eyes, calm demeanor (except when the UPS guy stopped in) and eagerness to interact with everyone (when she wasn't napping) especially during tax season.

Prior to joining Roman & Kulpa, LLC, Harley strayed from her prior firm (i.e. owner) due to lack of compensation (i.e. treats) and poor benefits (i.e. no bed to lay on). She was found wandering the streets for a better environment and adopted by her furever parents Joe & Lisa Roman through the Burlington County Animal Shelter in 2019.

Sadly, Harley died suddenly on April 15, 2021 but will forever be remembered as our first CCO.

As our newest Chief Comfort Officer, Luna provides our entire team and all visitors with a pleasant greeting and a reason to smile. As a Husky mix, she is clever, endearing and doesn't bark much so she is the perfect office dog that comes to work as a tail-wagger on most days.

Prior to joining the firm, Luna lost her way and was rescued from her hometown in Puerto Rico as a stray looking for a furever home. In her search for a cooler environment, she worked her way up to Virginia and then to a Pennsylvania SPCA shelter. 

When meeting her new parents Lisa and Joe Roman in July 2021, it was love at first sight. She was impoverished after spending many dog days of summer as a street dog but quickly has become a sweet and loving part of her home and office. She is now saving regularly and on her way to a secure and comfortable retirement at some point in the future.
