About

Don Tu and the American Dream Story... and YOURS

Don came to the United States in December 1979 from Vietnam with his parents and 6 siblings.  He has been a proud resident in South Tampa since 1979. 

Don received his accounting undergraduate and Master of Accountancy from Stetson University in Deland after graduating from Plant High School.  Subsequent to his education at Stetson University, Don started with Ernst & Young in the audit department. 

After a year in public accounting at Ernst & Young, Don realized that his accounting passion is in the private accounting arena. 

Since then, Don has worked for Eckerd Corporation, Tampa Bay Vending, Canteen Vending, and recently with Paychex.  During his time at these entities, Don was able to build strong meaningful relationships with senior management, co-workers, his team, clients, and vendors that ultimately encouraged him to start ClientsFIRST Accounting Services.

Don’s passion is in helping entrepreneurs manage their businesses through the numbers from their up-to-date financial statements. 

He believes in the numerous opportunities available in the market and any entrepreneur with proper financial understanding can take advantage of the opportunities and build his/her American Dreams.
