About Tadd Wooton

Tadd has helped shape businesses from the CFO seat since 2008. In recent years, Tadd has helped large and small companies modernize their accounting/operating systems by upgrading systems and developing teams. This often involves a complete accounting overhaul with purposeful integration of operating processes where Tadd is uniquely equipped to evaluate and propose solutions. In his role as CFO, Tadd has led all finance and accounting functions and guided companies through growth, acquisitions, and change. This involves forming, shaping and managing a good internal team as well as a variety of financial relationships: Bankers, Commercial Lenders, Auditors, Tax Accountants, Surety, Payroll Admins, Insurance, Business Combination Attorneys, other M&A stakeholders, local compliance audits, etc. Tadd draws on a broad range of accounting experiences having “earned his stripes” at Deloitte before accepting a role with a former client in the services industry. Tadd went on to launch his own professional practice in 2009 as a founding partner at Smith & Wooton CPA firm, which specialized in helping rapid-growth start-ups scale, acquire financing and attract investors. He is a licensed CPA and received his accounting degree from Pepperdine University. As a roll-up-the-sleeves executive with 18+ years of financial leadership experience, Tadd has led organizations through a wide range of turn-around situations and accounting changes. Shaping organizations starts by modeling and developing a culture of trust and accountability. Tadd has a knack for developing people, unlocking candor, and being realistic without taking the fun out of working hard.
