Aria Klooster, CPA

Tax Accountant

Aria is originally from Northern Michigan but, she has been living in Durango for the last 6 years. She learned how to ski in Michigan and brought those skills with her to the Colorado mountains.

Aria graduated from Fort Lewis College and completed a double major in accounting and data analytics. She was president of Beta Alpha Psi. Aria enjoyed her finance and accounting courses which she also tutored other students in. That is when she discovered her love for accounting and helping others. She found her passion for accounting thanks to one of her college professors who pushed her to take more accounting classes. Aria followed her advice and soon found herself becoming a CPA. She enjoys the client-facing opportunities this profession has to offer, as well as being able to educate clients and supporting them in their businesses.

When Aria is not working, she enjoys spending time with her family and exploring the beauties of southwest Colorado. She enjoys playing tennis, skiing and hiking.

Jason Watson, CPA, is a Senior Partner of WCG CPAs & Advisors, a boutique yet progressive tax, accounting and business consultation firm located in Colorado serving small business owners and taxpayers worldwide.

Our Amazing Team Members

Wanna Talk About Your Small Business?

Please use the form below to tell us a little about yourself, and what you have going on with your small business or 1099 contractor gig. WCG CPAs & Advisors are small business CPAs, tax professionals and consultants, and we look forward to talking to you!

We typically schedule a 20-minute complimentary quick chat with one of our Partners or Senior Tax Professionals to determine if we are a good fit for each other, and how an engagement with our team looks. Tax returns only? Business advisory? Tax prep, and more importantly tax strategy and planning?

Should we need to schedule an additional consultation, our fee is $250 for 40 minutes. Fun! If we decide to press forward with a Business Advisory or Tax Patrol Services engagement, we will credit the consultation fee towards those services.

Appointments are typically held through Microsoft Teams and are scheduled on weekdays during the work day. Yes, we can easily accommodate nights and weekends, but those are reluctantly agreed to after some eye-rolling and complaining. Additionally, our schedules are more compressed during tax season (who would have thought, right?).

Shockingly we will return all appointment requests via email with 24-36 hours weather-permitting, or perhaps a phone call (if the moment strikes us). No black holes here! In a hurry, please call us at 719-387-9800.
