Our Story

Elijah Barnum started Vantage Accounting with a simple idea: to offer straightforward, transparent financial solutions that put people first. After gaining experience at top finance firms, he realized that many solutions out there weren’t tailored to the unique needs of individual businesses, especially small enterprises and startups.

  • Personalized Service: Every client relationship begins with Elijah’s direct involvement—no junior hand‑offs.

  • Transparent Pricing: Clear, predictable fees without surprise add‑ons.

  • Strategic Insight: Beyond number‑crunching, we deliver actionable recommendations that fuel growth.

What began as a small venture in St. George, UT, is now a growing practice, serving clients from coast to coast. From entrepreneurs to nonprofits, Vantage Accounting partners with businesses of all sizes, providing clear, honest, and personal financial guidance every step of the way.

Through it all, Elijah’s commitment to integrity, transparency, and building lasting relationships remains the foundation of everything Vantage stands for.
