"I really try to put myself in the shoes of business owners to provide practical, solid advice.”

Dianna Larkin joined McCay Duff LLP as a senior manager in 2010 and became a partner in 2013.  As a partner she thoroughly enjoys working with business owners as their trusted advisor, providing advice that helps them run successful businesses and reach their goals. In addition to accounting and tax services, she also provides business consulting services including cash flow projections, due diligence reviews for clients considering a business purchase, as well as assistance with arranging financing for business acquisition and/or growth. She also has a growing specialty working with dental professionals.

Dianna’s parents were business owners who instilled in her a strong understanding that, when working with business clients, their accounting represents more than just numbers: it represents their hard work, sleepless nights, and hopes for the future.  It is her passion to help business owners reach their full potential and achieve their vision.

Dianna grew up in Nova Scotia and moved to Ottawa after graduating with a Bachelor of Administration from Acadia University and has a Chartered Professional Accountant designation.

Dianna has many interests that keep her active outside of work, including being a hockey and ringette mom, paddle boarding, kayaking and investing in real estate.  She is also a strong believer in giving back to the community. Her volunteer activities include serving as Treasurer with Care Centre Ottawa.

“Dianna is a consultant, an advisor, and a first class professional. She has helped us grow our business over the past 2 years and we’re grateful to have her on our advisory team.”  R. L.
