Hello! If you’re looking for a company that will focus on improving you as an accountant, expanding your knowledge, and taking the time to understand you, please look no further!

Our firm is large enough to offer a full range of professional services but small enough to give you and our clients the individual attention that we all deserve.

We offer our staff training from our partners, seminars, and software partners. Our company philosophy is to ask as soon as you can if you have a question. If we do not know the answer we will find out for our clients and staff.

Our staff accountant will be completing a mix of tax preparation, consulting, and business bookkeeping. Our firm has the honor of serving many individuals and businesses on the Big Island of Hawaii. That being said, our staff has the opportunity to learn about a diverse set of companies. Our teams also network within the community, go on-site to businesses and attend conferences.
