Nicole Long, CPA
Nicole has a wide range of tax experience from working in a Big Four public accounting firm, two start-ups and a $2B revenue corporation. It was during her time at the most recent start-up that she realized how much she enjoys helping individuals, not corporations, understand more about tax and how to save money.
Her commitment to mental health started in 2020 when she got her first therapist after suffering from depression and grief. Through her sessions, she’s learned the importance of seeking joy, communicating with intention and holding space for herself and others.

She lives in Portland, Oregon with her two cats, sweet Kenji and little Pippa. She is an abolitionist and believes that instead of prisons and police, communities keep people safe. She (unintentionally) followed in her late father’s footsteps in becoming a tax CPA; he is her guiding light in all things. Outside of work you can find Nicole painting, tending to her house plants, dancing in her kitchen, with her friends, and in music venues all over the world. She enjoys playing slow pitch softball during the beautiful PNW summers and watching movies at the theatre.
Her Oregon CPA license is #15162.
