Alex Gamboa, CPA

Founder
Cloud North Bookkeeping & Tax

My Background

Hello! My name is Alex, and I’m very excited to launch Cloud North Bookkeeping & Tax. I have over 10 years of experience in public accounting, starting my career working for a large national firm, moving to small firms, and even running my own firm prior to launching Cloud North.

Over the years, I’ve gained diverse experience in external audits, internal audits, review engagements, compilation engagements, tax compliance and planning, advisory, and consulting. I’ve truly seen it all.

Why I Started Cloud North

What I have enjoyed most is working directly with small business owners. I discovered this quickly when I co-founded my own firm, Gamboa & Holland LLP, in Kenora, ON.

Owning my own business helped me relate to my clients who were also entrepreneurs. I developed a deep appreciation for what small business owners bring to the Canadian economy, and that motivated me to treat every client’s business as if it were my own.

I launched Cloud North to bring this same passion to clients in a different way. By leveraging cloud technology, I help clients keep their financials clean, streamlined, and efficient. This means real-time financials every month so you can make real-time decisions for your business with confidence.

I believe you can’t truly understand your business if you don’t understand the numbers. That’s why I focus on making financial information clear, accessible, and actionable, so your business can thrive, not just survive.

With years of tax experience and completion of CPA Canada’s In-Depth Tax Program, I bring a specialized tax skillset that complements our bookkeeping services.

Because I’m directly involved in my clients’ bookkeeping, I can provide the most accurate tax advisory possible, identifying issues early and uncovering strategic tax planning opportunities that align with your business goals.

Building Relationships Beyond the Numbers

For me, being a trusted advisor goes far beyond bookkeeping and tax. It’s about building relationships, being available, and supporting clients when they need me most.

I believe these relationships are the most important part of my work. I’m not only here for myself, I’m here to help small business owners succeed, build the life they want, and achieve balance.

A Bit About Me

Born and raised in Kenora, ON, I now live in St. John’s, NL with my beautiful wife and two loving kids. When I’m not working with clients, you’ll find me spending time with my family, watching my kids grow, pretending I’m a decent golfer, or learning my way around the kitchen.

My family is the most important thing to me and it’s a big reason why I started Cloud North. I know how much family matters to many small business owners, and I want to help you build the same balance I strive for in my own life.
