Dave DuBois, CPA
Corporate Development Manager at Aprio | Leading and enhancing Aprio’s growth through corporate M&A activity
Who I work with
As Aprio’s transaction lead, I work with the leaders of CPA, business advisory, wealth management and technology firms who are considering a future with Aprio. If you are a business owner in these areas, have you considered your team’s “next”? Let’s connect!
My specialty
I specialize in financial due diligence and deal structuring for Aprio’s inorganic growth; ranging from structures like strategic combinations, mergers, acquisitions, asset purchases, acquihires, capital investments, and strategic partner referral arrangements.
Results I have delivered
Since joining Aprio in 2022, I have led our cross-functional M&A team during our strongest period of inorganic growth in the firm’s 70-year history. After closing and integrating some historic transactions for Aprio, our team was recognized by Accounting Today as the #1 Fastest-Growing CPA & Business Advisory Firm in the US. In 2023 alone, we have grown the firm by over 50% from the previous year, resulting in over $125,000,000 in inorganic revenue growth, and adding over 600 team members through Aprio’s M&A activity.
Unique things about me
Growing up in North Jersey with two competitive brothers and two loving parents, I excelled in many things which always excluded two nagging weaknesses; reading and math. Today, I have a personal library of over 200 books and work with numbers for a living. As Winston Churchill famously said, “never let a good crisis go to waste.” Life is all about growth and overcoming challenges in pursuit of the best version of ourselves.
When I am not at work
I love spending time in nature, preferably with a pair of skis on. When I’m not in the office or traveling to our 20+ office locations across the globe, you can find me hiking and skiing in Colorado’s Rocky Mountains.
People say I am
Resourceful, passionate, proactive and reliable.
