Our History

est-header

In the 100-years-plus since Hood & Strong’s founding in 1917, we’ve lived through world wars, survived earthquakes (and two pandemics), witnessed transformative cultural change, and embraced world-changing technology. Through it all, we’ve remained grounded in a culture of service excellence and innovation, a commitment to our clients and team members, and strong support for and from the communities in which we live and work.

We’re humbled to share some of the more extraordinary and colorful milestones from our historical journey — from a two-person proprietorship in downtown San Francisco to one of California’s most respected full-service public accounting firms. Today, with four regional offices, a diverse group of more than 100 team members, and a variety of individual, commercial, and not-for-profit clients, we are embracing our second century of success with confidence, enthusiasm, and pride.
