Phil Cruickshank, Partner, Zenally LLP

Phil Cruickshank CPA, CGA
Partner

I help small business owners throughout Central Alberta build better businesses.

When a business is properly set up with strong financial management it provides jobs and contributes to the success of our local community. It provides the owners with peace of mind, knowing their finances are secure and their retirement will be well funded.

When did you start at Zenally?

I started my own firm in 1990 and by 1993 Norm Perry and I were working together in a firm that would later become Perry Cruickshank LLP. Thirty plus years later and still having fun!

The Friendly Neighborhood Spiderman. Who doesn't like a friendly neighbor?

Why Did You Decide to Do What You Do Now?

Family time, anything Sci-Fi, and in the summer, working on my pond.

The One Thing You Can't Live Without

My family. As the youngest of 7, I have always been surrounded by family.
