The author at his home in Tucson

My name is Randall Brookshier. I am a CPA in public practice and owner of Randall Brookshier CPA, PLLC, in Tucson, Arizona, and currently serve as instructional faculty and department head for Accounting & Finance at Pima Community College.

I am now officially semi-retired from practice and am no longer accepting new clients.

I hold an MBA with a concentration in accounting and a bachelors of science degree in liberal arts from the University of Arizona, where I graduated with honors both times (good now mom?). I have over 30 years of professional experience, including 17 years, and counting, in public accounting. I served as controller for a semiconductor equipment and a medical device manufacturer, and as CFO for a national specialty construction contractor. I worked in the Big Four (then the Big 6) and even traded commodities as director of risk management for one of the nation’s largest copper producers. In short, I have lived a varied and interesting life.

I am married to a wonderful woman appropriately named Sunny, and have three children, a daughter (24) and son (21) living at home, and a son from my first marriage with a wife and children of his own. My loving and growing family provide me with daily inspiration.
