About Us
G. Paul Hendriks, Certified Public Accountant
Paul thoroughly enjoys his clients, guiding them through their financial leaps, pointing out opportunities, minimizing their taxes, sometimes saving them from themselves, fighting for their rights with the IRS, and helping them realize their financial dreams.
Upon graduating from San Francisco State with an MBA emphasis in accounting, Paul's accounting career began with Coopers & Lybrand (C&L) which is now known as PriceWaterhouse Coopers, then a "Big 8" international accounting firm. He truly enjoyed the work, especially when he became a part of the Emerging Business Service Group, which allowed him to develop both tax and business consulting skills. After leaving C&L his career took a different turn with Wells Fargo. While he became a Vice President and developed life-long friends there, corporate life was just not for him.
Public accounting, where Paul could work with individuals and their small businesses, make a difference and be appreciated, led him to create his own firm in 1988.
