Meet Sam
Sampath Annabathula
Staff Accountant I, Trail CPA
What’s your background and expertise?
I hold a B.Com (Hons), a postgraduate degree in Accounting from York University, and the ACCA professional qualification. With a strong foundation in accounting principles and global best practices, I believe accuracy and consistency in recording day-to-day transactions are the backbone of any business. When the fundamentals are right, everything else—taxes, audits, financial decisions—flows seamlessly.
Why did you choose to get into accounting?
I’ve always enjoyed working with numbers and solving financial puzzles. To me, accountants are the pillars of every business. Just like doctors safeguard health, we help protect and grow a business’s financial well-being. I take that responsibility seriously and love contributing to clients’ long-term success.
What do you like to do outside of work?
Outside the office, I enjoy chatting with friends, spending time with my family, and experimenting in the kitchen. Cooking is one of my favorite creative outlets—I’m often on YouTube looking for new dishes to try.
