Bill Bourbonnais, co-founder of Diane Kennedy’s Tax Services, and founder of W L B Accounting Solutions LLC, a virtual-service accounting and bookkeeping firm serving clients nationwide, has served as a very successful tax and accounting consultant since 1993, when he established his first tax preparation firm, WBITS, in San Diego while still working full-time and finishing his MBA in Finance at Webster University.
Bill came into accounting from a less-traditional route than most in the profession. While many tax and accounting professionals pursue their accounting degree and then intern at a CPA firm to learn their craft, Bill has worked up through the ranks in virtually every operational department in several companies, in addition to owning and operating several successful businesses with his wife, Laura. His love of tax and accounting has come about through his understanding of the contributions every department makes to the success or failure of a business operation.
Through his private practice, Bill has served a broad range of clients, including non-profit organizations, manufacturing firms, homeowners associations, consulting firms, farming and agricultural companies, consultants, and law firms. In addition, Bill has taught undergraduate tax and accounting courses for University of Phoenix Online and Fresno, California campuses, and is an IRS Enrolled Agent. Bill is also Controller for Diane Kennedy’s Tax Loopholes, LLC and Diane Kennedy & Associates P.C., as well as several other business and investor clients.
When not crunching numbers and consulting with clients, Bill enjoys spending time with his wife, Laura, and son, Daniel. The family enjoys swimming, reading, and weekend trips to the local mountains.
