After graduating from Pacific Lutheran University, Doug joined a small Tacoma, Washington CPA firm eventually becoming a Shareholder. As a shareholder Doug managed personnel, business audits, non-profit audits, and taxation. Eventually, Doug became the Managing Shareholder and stayed for 12 years. In December of 2014, Doug sold his interest in the Tacoma firm and after completing a two-year contract agreement through December of 2016 he and his family relocated to the Portland area. In January of 2017, Doug joined a Portland Oregon firm. Doug had up to 80 Washington clients follow him and he services them to date. On January 1, 2020, Doug acquired a Beaverton practice owned by Steven Schmidt. Between his Washington clients, Portland clients, and Schmidt clients Doug was managing over 600 clients. Over the next few years, it became evident that, for Doug to provide top notch services to his clients, he needed to leave the Portland firm and strike out on his own. On June 30, 2023, Doug left the Portland firm and started his own firm. On December 1, 2023, Doug acquired office space at the Raleigh West Executive Building. Doug recruited staff all who had worked with him previously between three to five years.
Doug believes in providing top-notch service to his clients and taking care of his staff. He gives clients his cell number and generally answers client calls as late as 7:00PM during the week. He also, as a rule, tries to respond to client emails within 24 business hours. Doug believes that he is not just your tax preparer but your tax advisor and, as such, encourages his clients to contact him throughout the year with any questions. In his spare time Doug enjoys watching sports, travelling, and spending time with loved ones, two cats, and 160 LB Great Dane Freya.
