Everyone on Our Team Counts!
Courtney Anderson, CMA, EA - President
Courtney Anderson, the President and Founder of Kyanite Accounting, became a Certified Management Accountant in 2017 and an Enrolled Agent in 2021. She graduated from The University of North Carolina at Wilmington in 2012 with a Bachelor's Degree in Accounting and a minor in Information Technology. After spending the last 8.5 years in San Diego, CA, she recently relocated to Largo, FL with her loveable furbaby, Emmie.
As the daughter of both a CPA and a Tax Guru, she grew up to understand and appreciate what goes into maintaining great relationships with clients while providing exceptional services within the Accounting field. In 2020, Courtney made the inevitable leap into self-employment under the original brand, Courtney Anderson EA Tax, Inc. This decision was made to offer a service that feels genuine and personal, and provide her with a true sense of fulfillment knowing she was providing valuable solutions to her clients. As a lover of progress, change and evolution, Courtney expanded the brand into Kyanite Accounting in 2023 in an effort to nourish even more clients and businesses with their own business expansion.
We're not regular accountants, we're cool accountants.
Alma Vida Do, EA - Accounting Lead
Alma Vida Do, EA was a welcomed addition the Kyanite team in September 2021 and has been vital part of our success since day one. She has a Bachelor's in Economics from the University of California San Diego and is the mother to two adorable boys. Similarly to Courtney, Alma is the daughter of a CPA and has Accounting in her blood and an entrepreneurial spirit in her heart. While her kids were very young, she took on the big feat of venturing into the world of business ownership with starting her own eCommerce LLC. Doing her own business's Accounting and taxes sparked her interest to narrow in more specifically on our exciting industry to focus solely on taxes and accounting for others. She has three crazy tax seasons under her belt as well as a brain full of the extensive knowledge she gained from earning her Enrolled Agent certification in 2023, graduating from the Surgent Income Tax School, and graduating from the Penn Foster with a Career Diploma in Bookkeeping. We are extremely lucky to have her as our resident Accounting Wizard!
Brennan Gambs - Director of Accounting
Emmie - Head of Puplick Relations
As the first official onboarded team member, Emmie earns her keep as the company's mascot and has been personally responsible for handling all of the company's mental health maintenance. Although her work ethic is lazier than most, her contributions are held to the highest of merit. Without her codependent presence, Kyanite Accounting as a whole would cease to exist.
