John founded the firm in 1991 to fulfill the underserved needs of emerging growth businesses and their owners. He recognized that this market segment would benefit from the same resources available to larger companies, but his “Big 4” firm was too pricey.

As a result of his vision, The Anderson Company has helped clients transform their ideas into multi-million dollar businesses and has helped hundreds achieve the peace-of-mind of financial security.

When not teaching clients about the path to financial health, John enjoys playing ice hockey, and spending time with his family.
