About


Donald James Atkinson "DJ". This is a tribute to my sister Sharie and Dad "DJ". DJ always had a heart for helping others. My best memories were spending our summers in San Clemente where we loved the beach and would go with DJ to the Yatch club. We also spent time with DJ's Mother in Coronado where DJ grew up. I knew DJ was a CPA but really didn't know what that was exactly. I was more fascinated by Marge (Stepmom), she was a teacher for disabled children and was a professional cheerleader cheering for the LA Rams. Following in both of their footsteps, I found my passion in Dance and Cheer. I also was very good with numbers winning awards and even passing my siblings up in school in Mathematics. So it's no wonder that I find myself on the same career path as DJ. DJ in 1972 (The year my sister Sharie was born, passed away now 2017) founded and served as President of the Santa Ana Association of Enrolled Agents, now a nationwide organization. DJ did many great things including served in the United States Marine Corps and an active member of his community. He served as the President of the San Clemente Exchange Club, was the Commander of the American Legion, Commodore of the Newport Harbor Elks Yacht Club, Senior Warden of St. Clemente's Episcopal Church and President of Casa Blanca HOA Association.


Dj made his career as a tax accountant, his real passions were sailing, golfing, surfing and hosting gatherings. His wife Marge is such a beautiful person supporting his dreams and passions for decades. They both truly inspired me to branch out and start my own Accounting and Tax business. After working over 25 years for other great companies I felt it was time to give tribute to the ones who shaped me into the person I have become. So this business is for my family who no longer is here in the present but always here in my heart. So Mom, DJ, Sharie, Johnnie, Eddie, and Mario this next chapter in my life is for you. I promise I will run my business from the heart just as you showed me!
