My Background and Firm

I have lived in Edmonton, Alberta since 1983 and have worked for over 30 years in accounting and financial services.  In 1991 I completed the courses and program required to become a Chartered Accountant, now Chartered Professional Accountant.  In 1998, after working with a large national accounting firm, I started my own public accounting practice.

My goal then was and still remains to try combine the best aspects of a traditional accounting firm with a more modern approach. I strive to offer good service at reasonable rates and make the experience as simple and easy as possible for clients. I try to present information that can at times be complex or confusing in a complete, but understandable way and look for good tax planning opportunities.

Since 1998 I have provided a wide range of accounting, audit and tax services to individuals, small and medium size businesses and charitable and other not for profit organizations. I serve clients in throughout Alberta and elsewhere, as well as in the Edmonton area.

In addition to myself, I have a team of several experienced accounting technicians who have worked with me for a number of years. We serve a variety of sectors including: arts and culture organizations, contractors and construction, education and health care, investors and holding companies, professionals, religious and political organizations, residential or commercial rental and technology.

If you would like more information on any of the services I offer or would like to discuss your needs please feel free to call me at 780-425-2350 between 9 am and 5:00 pm Monday to Friday, except holidays. I offer an initial consultation meeting at no charge.
