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. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

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. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

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.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

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 <\/em><\/strong>between 9 am and 5:00 pm Monday to Friday<\/em>, except holidays. I offer an initial consultation meeting at no charge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Other Organizations I am Involved In<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Edmonton is a great community and I appreciate having the opportunity to help local small businesses and other organizations succeed and thrive over the years. In addition to that I have enjoyed being involved with a number of not for profit organization as a volunteer, where I have also met great people and learned a lot. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the past have served as Treasurer of the Alberta Entrepreneurs Association, Treasurer of the Central Edmonton Community Land Trust, Treasurer and President of the New Entrepreneurs Toastmasters Club. I also volunteered with the Business Link Guest Advisor program for a number of years to provide accounting and tax advise, primarily to individuals considering starting up new businesses. I am currently Treasurer with the North Saskatchewan River Valley Conservation Society. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I have been a member of the Chartered Professional Accountants Alberta (formerly Institute of Chartered Accountants of Alberta) since 1992. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
