Headshot of Michael Sousa

My parents are both first generation Americans from the Azores in Portugal. Being a child of immigrants showed me that when you work hard in life, any dream is possible. I’m the first college graduate in my family.

Principal, CPA

Experience

As a specialist in the construction industry, I advise contractors of varying sizes and specialty, as well as real estate clients. I have extensive experience in closely held companies, and with professional services such as engineering, lawyers, and consultants.

My clients appreciate my proactive approach to client service, my innovative mindset, and that I speak in plain language, making sometimes complex issues easy to understand. Around the office, colleagues know me for being positive and that I bring an even-keel approach to a fast-paced industry. I truly enjoy being an advisor, and my daily interactions with clients and staff allow me to do what I love. It makes for a challenging yet rewarding career.

I received my B.S.A. with a focus in accounting from the University of Colorado at Boulder. I belong to the AICPA and the Colorado Society of CPAs.

I enjoy anything outdoors from hiking and biking, to stand-up paddle boarding and traveling. I play softball and basketball and coach youth baseball. My wife, Lindsey, and our two children enjoy hiking in the mountains and visiting various mountain towns.
