"Tax Season is stressful, but can be debilitating when you have issues that you are unable to resolve on your own. Riana Linsky was extremely patient, very detail oriented and a great communicator through out the entire process! She cleared up all of my issues and left me with confidence. I couldn't think of working with any other CPA! Thank you Riana and Dark Horse for helping me through a challenging time!"

"My experience with Dark Horse CPAs has been excellent. The team is knowledgeable and professional, and I’ve been especially impressed with the work of Riana Linsky. She took my messy and unorganized books and methodically combed through them with a level of attention to detail I’ve never experienced before. Riana does not settle for “good enough” when it comes to bookkeeping. She digs in, asks the necessary questions, and ensures every aspect of the finances is properly accounted for. Thanks to her exacting standards, my books are now the most accurate and transparent they have ever been. I strongly recommend Riana and Dark Horse CPAs to any business owner who values precision and accountability."

Overview

About

Sometimes you discover your calling in life far from home. For Riana, that calling was accounting, and that place was Eugene, Oregon. Riana grew up in Phoenix and, like many folks at that age, felt the calling to leave home and explore. A year in LA, six months in Atlanta, and then…Eugene. Maybe because the rain forces you to find indoor interests, Riana discovered her interest in (and eventual love for) accounting. Thus, Riana got her degree in Accounting from the University of Oregon. After a 16-year stint in the Beaver State (don’t tell that to an Oregon Ducks fan), she decided the state she left wasn’t so bad after all and the dry heat made her feel a lot better than the gloomy cold of the Pacific Northwest.

The Accounting Equation is Assets = Liabilities + Equity. Not many folks get excited about that, but Riana does. Even fewer would express love for an equation, but Riana does. The equation represents a form of order and structure absent in much of the world. Her accounting career has led her to firms small and large, each of which left her with a desire to start a firm of her own. When she found Dark Horse, she knew her new accounting equation would be Riana + Her Own Practice = Dark Horse CPAs.

Riana loves helping small business owners dial in their financial forecasting to make strategic business decisions and deploy tax-saving maneuvers to increase their global bottom line. She’s also passionate about sustainability and the triple bottom line. Riana’s bottom line is that she loves her work. Outside of work, she loves seeing as much live music as she can, chasing waterfalls (sorry, TLC), and spending time with her family: her husband, Robert, and her dog Lea.

Don't count the days. Make the days count.
