About the Owner

Hi, I’m Jim Dulude, a CPA with a passion for helping tradespeople and small business owners keep more of what they earn.


Before becoming a tax professional, I spent over 20 years working hands-on in the trades and in construction management. I know the job sites, the long hours, and the hustle it takes to run a business—because I’ve lived it. That experience gives me a unique edge when it comes to helping electricians, plumbers, roofers, landscapers, and other hardworking professionals make smart financial decisions and lower their tax bills.


My approach is straightforward, honest, and built around making your finances easier to understand and manage. I take pride in helping business owners like you cut through the confusion, stay compliant, and build a stronger financial future.

When I’m not crunching numbers or working with clients, you’ll find me spending time with my family—skiing, sailing, or exploring the mountains.


Let’s connect and see how I can help your business thrive.
