Matthew Flood was raised in Las Vegas, NV. for 25 years. After graduating high school, he continued his education at UNLV majoring in Business Administration. The opportunity allowed him to join his fathers' CPA firm in Las Vegas in 1985 where he received most of his accounting and tax representation training and education. During his tenure there he increased his knowledge of tax law and earned his Enrolled Agent license. While working at this firm, Matt was married and started a family of three children.

In 1992, the Floods decided to raise their family in a small town atmosphere and relocated to Bellingham, WA where Matt started his own Accounting and Tax preparation business. There Matt became actively involved in the local parks and recreation where he became a local baseball/softball umpire with fifteen years experience behind the plate.
Matt has relocated back to California where his extended family lives. Here he is continuing to work in accounting, tax and consulting industry as he has for his entire adult life.
