Kenton Poelzer graduated with an Accounting degree in the Bachelor of Commence program at the University of Alberta in 2004 and immediately began working as a junior accountant at the CMA firm, Summit Strategies. Two years later, under the mentorship and guidance of the partners of Summit Strategies, he launched a small but successful accounting firm named Accounting for Success that specialized in providing a low cost alternative option for small businesses. AFS grew quickly over the next couple years until in 2011 Kenton sold his business to his partner to pursue his vision of a unique accounting firm that was built around improving the financial condition of its clients. Votum Accounting is the realization of that vision.

When I’m not having fun preparing taxes and budgets I also enjoy an active lifestyle in sports (among other things) with my family. At age 33 I’ve been blessed to still be able to play full-contact football while at the same time coach my sons in rugby and hockey. Most importantly I have a wonderful wife, Jodi, of 13 years who has been my biggest supporter and three beautiful boys Carson, Logan and Devin.
