David brings more than 20 years of public practice experience, working closely with business owners, property investors and growing SMEs to help them structure, protect and strengthen their wealth.
Graduating from the University of Auckland with a double major in Information Management and Accounting, David began his career with larger Chartered Accounting firms before establishing his own practice in 2016. His background gives him both the technical depth and practical insight needed to support clients through every stage of their business journey.
David is known for being more than a compliance accountant. He takes a genuine interest in his clients’ businesses, providing clear, honest advice across business structuring, wealth protection and tax planning. He works closely with clients on succession planning, business acquisitions and exits, due diligence, trust advice, and proactive tax strategies — ensuring the right structures are in place to safeguard assets and support long-term growth.
With significant experience in property taxation, David has assisted many investors and developers to navigate complex projects with confidence.
Detail-oriented and commercially minded, David helps clients streamline compliance and back-office demands so they can focus on building wealth and spending more time on what matters most.
He is committed to continuous professional development and regularly attends seminars and technical updates to stay ahead of legislative change.
He believes in building long-term, trusted relationships — partnering with clients for the long haul rather than just the financial year.
