Our Team
Michael Wilson, EA
Michael’s financial philosophy is shaped by two things: growing up in a family business and playing the drums. Both taught him the discipline, timing, and focus required to thrive in fast-paced environments. Today, he combines that rhythm and creativity with heavy-hitting corporate expertise to help entrepreneurs scale with confidence.
The Track Record:
Enterprise Scale: Spent 10+ years at a Fortune 500 company, optimizing profit margins for $900M+ in annual revenue.
Rapid Growth: Stepped into his own family’s business and scaled it from $6M to $15M in under a year, allowing the owners to successfully close shop and retire.
Advanced Credentials: Holds a B.S. in Accounting from Grand Canyon University and an M.S. in Accounting with an emphasis in Tax Compliance and Planning.
Michael is on a mission to bring enterprise-level bookkeeping, accounting, and tax strategy to your business—delivered in a way that is collaborative, educational, and actually fun.
