KEN COELHO
Partner-In-Charge, Southern California
Armanino LLP
Ken Coelho’s career came about by blending his accounting know-how with his passion for arts and entertainment having spent time with the stage in his college days as a theatre major. He focused on business management full-time starting in 1999 and five years later launched the business management practice group at Los Angeles-based RBZ. In the intervening years, RBZ became Armanino LLP and Coelho helped grow a niche practice from $125 thousand in revenue to over $27 million annually by 2022.
Coelho expanded traditional business management for the entertainment industry to include family office services for high-net-worth and ultra-high-net-worth clients not in the entertainment industry and consistently pushes the envelope with technology to create best-in-class service offerings. One of his key priorities is growing the profession and he has been instrumental in mentoring and developing future leaders who are today partners at Armanino.
