Deb Steel, CA, CFP

I am new to the RLB family, but am no stranger to public accounting. Over the past 23 years, I have enjoyed developing my skills and being an advisor to family-run businesses, non-profit organizations and municipalities.  Accountants have the privilege of meeting many people who are driven to succeed. They usually have a vision in the market place or have seen a need in the community and strive to overcome any obstacles in their path. I enjoy being involved with the development of solutions to conquer those obstacles. 

Tax is often a critical component, and although I am not a tax specialist, I am aware of its many faces and applications, and know when to consult with other professionals within the RLB team.

I look forward to offering the diverse and depth of services that RLB can provide to the clients in Kitchener, Waterloo and surrounding area.

Once outside of the accounting arena, you are most likely to find me at the curling club – at least in the winter, or enjoying the serenity of the lakes of Ontario in the warmer months. With a friend or two in tow, we head out in the canoe or kayaks and disappear from civilization. No phones, no faxes, no email – now that is a treat.

The outdoors in general have a great appeal for me. I blame my parents who took me camping every year since I was born.
