Our Story
“We Don’t Just Do the Work—We Grow the Vision.”
At Straight Talk CPAs, we believe accounting should be a strategic advantage—not a source of stress.
We help business owners reduce taxes, increase profits, and gain financial clarity—so they can scale with confidence.
We’re not your typical CPA firm.
We’re vision-driven, future-focused, and rooted in results.
Our Mission
The core of why we exist.
To help entrepreneurial business owners thrive by reducing taxes, increasing profits, and gaining financial clarity—through strategic, AI-powered accounting, tax, and CFO solutions.
Our Vision
Where we’re going together.
To be the most trusted CPA firm in the U.S. for businesses up to $25M in revenue—recognized for innovation, measurable results, and a people-first client experience.
The Straight Talk Difference
We’re not a transactional firm—we’re a transformational partner.
Our clients don’t just get financial statements or tax filings. They get:
- Strategic tax savings
- Stronger profit margins
- Clear, actionable financial insights
- A team that understands both the numbers and the dream
Why I Started This Firm
I came to the U.S. from Kenya for college—thanks to the hard work of my father, a small business owner who built a company that sent his four sons to school in America. That experience taught me the power of small business and the impact it can have on a family’s future.
After earning my CPA and serving as a CFO in New York City, I saw a pattern: most accounting firms were reactive, outdated, and out of touch with what business owners actually need.
I’ll never forget meeting a client who was overwhelmed and flying blind financially. They didn’t just need a tax return—they needed clarity, strategy, and a partner who truly understood them.
That was my moment. I thought: “This industry needs to change. And I’m going to build the firm that does it.”
That’s why I started Straight Talk CPAs—to bring clarity, responsiveness, and real partnership to the accounting world. Today, we help entrepreneurs grow their businesses with confidence, strategy, and straight talk that gets results.
