I'M SUMMER, FOUNDER OF dope cpa. I'VE HELPED entrepreneurs like you OPTIMIZE THEIR BUSINESSES FOR more revenue AND free time.
Are you experiencing burnout? Stress? Feeling like your workload is too much to handle? Maybe you don´t understand how to tackle an aspect of your business or feel it´s outside of your abilities. If any of this sounds familiar you´re in the right place.
LET ME TELL YOU A STORY
I WAS ONCE WHERE YOU ARE.
I remember the days of grinding away, spending all my energy working IN my business instead of building ON my business.
The stress. The uncertainty. The feeling that no matter how hard I worked, I wasn’t making the kind of progress I wanted.
I’m Summer Thorn, CPA, MBA, and founder of Dope CPA. With nearly two decades of military discipline, financial expertise, and an entrepreneurial spirit, I’ve made it my mission to help small and medium businesses thrive—especially in the cannabis industry, where challenges are complex, but opportunities are huge.
Here’s the thing: You don’t have to do it alone.
My approach is designed with you in mind—focused on growth, efficiency, and clarity. I bring cutting-edge technology and forward-thinking strategies to simplify your back office while delivering real, actionable insights. Every client interaction, every solution, and every win is fueled by my passion for helping you crush your goals.
This is what it means to be dope.
It’s about unapologetic authenticity. Ethical practices. And most importantly, unstoppable growth.
Because when your business grows, so does your freedom.
Let’s get to work—together.
OUT OF SHEER DESPERATION, I STARTED RESEARCHING PROJECT MANAGEMENT TOOLS AND OPERATIONAL STRATEGIES UNTIL I BECAME SOMEWHAT OF AN EXPERT.
I mastered batch work, templatizing processes, and building workflows and SOPs to streamline operations. By prioritizing tasks and using the right tools, I tripled my revenue in one year—gaining more time, flexibility, and efficiency.
I optimized cannabis accounting workflows, automated 280E tax compliance, and delegated tasks, allowing me to focus on dispensary bookkeeping, cannabis tax planning, and CFO advisory. Sharing my discoveries on Instagram attracted cannabis business owners eager to scale efficiently while staying compliant.
I soon realized I was spending more time helping others streamline their operations than working on my own. Seeing the need for a flexible, specialized service for cannabis entrepreneurs, I launched Dope CPA—offering expert cannabis accounting services, marijuana business bookkeeping, and tax strategy solutions tailored to the industry’s unique challenges.
If you’re ready to optimize your finances and maximize profits while staying compliant, I’d love to have you onboard!
Meet the team.
