Profile


After graduating from San Diego State University in 1978 with a business/accounting degree, I moved back home to Santa Rosa and worked for a couple of CPA firms. I opened my own practice in 1980 where I remain to this day.  I am a Certified Public Accountant and provide services in the areas of income tax, financial statements, and bookkeeping.

I enjoy playing tennis, hiking, and learning about math and science.  

Client Testimonials



Kristine S.
So happy to find Rick to prepare our taxes.  He is extremely thorough and organized and has very reasonable rates.  Amazed at how quickly he completed our returns.  Look forward to having him do our taxes in the future.

I dread tax season, but this year I switched accountants and used Richard Olmsted, CPA to prepare my business tax returns.  I found him to be very friendly, professional and thorough. Best of all, he offered very quick turnaround of my returns at an exceptional price.  He also provided down-to-earth, sound tax advice during a follow-up meeting that made tax planning decisions simple and straight forward.  I look forward to working with Richard in the future for all my personal and business tax matters.
