Cynthia Hamilton, CGA

Accounting has been part of Cynthia’s life since childhood as her father was in the profession as as well as many members of her family. She began working in the field in 1978 and completed her designation in 1992, at which point she had already been in her own practice for a year. She began providing computer consulting along with solid accounting knowledge. Her career path has also been interspersed with a few years controller for an international pump company and assistant controller for a large lumber retailer. Cynthia’s training, however, has come primarily from a number of well-known CA and CGA firms.

In addition to her CGA, Cynthia has a first-level certificate from the Data Processing Management Association, a Bachelor of Accounting Science from the University of Calgary, is at the last stages of completing the CICA In-depth tax course and is currently enrolled in the Computer Science and Information Systems program at Douglas College.

Cynthia brings to the Kemp Harvey Group not only a sound accounting and tax background, which includes preparation of US personal returns, but also a strengthening IT background which is so valuable in any computerized environment. In a 1999 North Shore News Readers Poll, under her married name, she was voted third most favorite accountant on the North Shore. In her spare time, Cynthia volunteers with the Burnaby / Royal City Chapter of the CGA Association, the British Columbia Genealogical Society and a few local community groups.
