Originally from Mt. Vernon, GA, William's 36-year career in accounting began following his completion of his BBA in Accounting from Georgia Southern University. In addition to his role as lead in our Atlanta office, William serves clients with a wide variety of needs, primarily focusing on entrepreneurial and multi-layer businesses. He enjoys "working with like-minded business owners and helping them make decisions that matter… Really adding value to their lives."
When he's not taking care of our clients with exceptional accounting and consulting services, he has a deep love for both the great outdoors and for time with family and friends. "I believe life is about experiences and making new friends, and that by really deeply caring about relationships, we all make a difference."
About William Sammons
An avid fly fisherman, William generates many client referrals on the water (literally), building relationships across southeast Atlanta's tight‑knit fly fishing community. William is focused on driving the company's organic growth through strategic business development and cultivating strong client relationships. He works closely with both prospective and existing clients—onboarding new engagements, coordinating internal teams, and maintaining efficient processes that ensure timely and accurate service delivery. William stays deeply involved during the early stages of client engagements, guiding implementation before transitioning work to the company's talented and seasoned team. He also consults with clients and internal team members on future strategies that help clients manage, protect, and grow their businesses. His approach parallels good business: Be at the right place, surround yourself with seasoned professionals, practice, and be in the moment—both on and off the water.
