Amanda DiGiacomo
Owner
I started Atlas Financial Solutions after realizing my true passion is helping those in my community. I am honored to share my knowledge, experience, and skills to elevate small business owners around me.
I graduated with honors from California State University Bakersfield with a degree in Economics. In my undergraduate, I co-founded the Economic Student Association which helps students, faculty, and employers stay connected. Additionally, I am a alumni member of the sorority Gamma Phi Beta. Among being a part of many local organizations, I currently am on the board of Directors for the Henrietta Weill Memorial Child Guidance Clinic.
During my undergraduate I worked as a bookkeeper for a property management company and an engineering firm. Later in my career I become the controller and operations manager of that engineering firm handling the day to day operations and finances. With that experience I decided to start my own accounting firm.
Since starting Atlas I was Bakersfield’s 20 under 40. I also received a certificate of recognition by the CA State Senate and Assembly. Moreover, in 2020 I was nominated for young entrepreneur of the year as well as nominated for nonprofit of the year by the Bakersfield’s Chamber of Commerce. In 2021, I received the advocacy award from NAWBO for helping small business owners and individuals get through the pandemic. Additionally, in 2021 I was nominated Inspirational Women by the LA Times B2B Publishing. In 2022, I was nominated Business Person of the Year.
“With modern day technologies I am able to share my knowledge with small businesses all throughout California, remotely.”
Ryan Torix
Hello! I started working with Atlas Financial Solutions during my final semester at California State University of Bakersfield. Amanda and her current staff have welcomed me with open arms and have made me feel like part of the family.
I have since recently graduated with honors and received my bachelor’s degree in accounting. During my undergraduate, I worked as a manager for a large corporation and managed a staff of approximately 35 people. During my tenure as a manager and a full-time student I have developed excellent leadership skills, communication skills, organizational skills, and the ability to multitask. Additionally, I volunteered at the local ice rink as a referee for youth hockey games and as a coach/trainer for youth hockey players that were just starting in the sport.
Since starting with Atlas, I have learned so much about the practical applications of accounting and how I can use my knowledge from the classroom to help small businesses grow. I have also began taking courses to become a CTEC Registered Tax Preparer and I look forward to eventually acquiring my CPA license. I hope to eventually progress to a management position with Atlas, as I love interacting with clients, informing them on changing laws, and providing tips on how they can improve their business. New and current clients can now reach me at rtorix@atlasfinancialsolutions.net
