Nicole Long, CPA
Photography by Kimberly Kimble
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, and now extended to her partner, his son, cat, Kittyboi, and dog, Mabel. Their house is full of plants and fur, and their love has shown her what abundance feels like.
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 watching movies at the theatre, playing slow pitch softball during the beautiful PNW summers and feeling joy in the slower moments.
During the 2025 season her Saturday team, House Electric, won the championship and her Sunday team, Slingshot Lounge, made it to the finals. These teams and community have brought her immense joy.
Her Oregon CPA license is #15162.
