The Oldridge Accounting Super Hero:
Shawn Oldridge, CPA, CGA
Experience Matters!
Born and raised in Windsor and Essex County, Shawn began his accounting career directly out of high school in 1998 with a national accounting firm. Shawn received his Honours Bachelor of Accounting Degree from Brock University.
Before starting Oldridge Accounting, one of Shawn’s other responsibilities at other practices has been information technology. He has always had a passion to find solutions that can help his clients succeed. He is also a business advisor with WEtech Alliance’s Venture Success Team.
During the daytime, Shawn is also the controller of AutoMAXX Pre-Owned Super Center where he is involved with the family business’ day-to-day operations. This gives Shawn a unique perspective when helping his clients. Although he is at the dealership during the daytime, he can always make time to answer client questions promptly. That’s the beauty of working for family.
When Shawn is not helping clients, he is the treasurer of the Welcome Centre Shelter for Women & Families and was previously the treasurer of the Windsor-Essex Red Show Society. Shawn also coaches 5-Pin Youth bowling on Saturday mornings at Playdium Lanes.
our vision
To provide an exceptional client experience using the latest technologies to small business owners.
“I started Oldridge Accounting to serve my clients in a different and more collaborative setting than a traditional accounting practice. By using cloud-based accounting applications, I have access to my clients’ data in real-time and I never have to bug them for the most updated version of their records. This allows me to see how healthy and profitable their businesses are and I can advise them accordingly throughout the year.”

Shawn does an amazing job and is willing to assist with both the small and large problems I am faced with as a small business startup. Thanks Shawn
Shawn is a pleasure to deal with. On a personal level he is easy to get a long with and truly cares about what he does. As a business owner I need someone like him in my corner to help me stay on track and organized. He goes above and beyond simply helping me with taxes. He helps me with bookkeeping, payroll, and always offers knowledgeable and honest advice.
