We Are Aspire Wealth.

Let us help you take control of your financial future.

Our Story.

We are a boutique accounting practice in bayside Port Melbourne with a genuine passion for helping people and businesses take control of their financial future.

At Aspire Wealth, our goal is to make managing your finances straightforward and stress-free, working closely with you to help create, manage and protect your wealth.

We pride ourselves on being different from your typical accounting practice – here, you won’t be passed on to a junior accountant. That’s just not how we do business.

When you work with us, you’ll always deal directly with a partner – Chris or Clint. Yes, we’re a two-man band, and that’s exactly how we like it. We take the time to explain your options in plain language and guide you through the important decisions.

While we’re a tight-knit team, we’re backed by a network of trusted experts in asset finance, legal services, financial planning, and mortgage broking, ensuring you have the right support to navigate the complexities of today’s financial landscape to unlock your full potential.

Meet the Team.

At Aspire Wealth, we help you take control of your finances – whether you’re growing a business, building wealth, or planning ahead. – we’re here to guide you every step of the way.

What Our Clients Are Saying.

Over two decades Chris has been managing my personal and company tax matters. As my business has grown and my life evolved, I have always relied on Chris’ expert guidance, sound advice, and unwavering support. His professionalism, integrity, and deep understanding of my needs have made all the difference, particularly during some challenging times. I have recommended Chris to many friends over the years, and they have all been just as impressed with his knowledge and dedication. He cares, often going above and beyond and that ultimately translates to a valued relationship…and everyone needs a positive relationship with their accountant, right?

Helen – Liberty Travel

Chris at Aspire Wealth has been a fantastic partner for our business from day one. Extremely knowledgeable, pragmatic, agile problem solvers and always available to help, I’m not sure how we would have made it this far in our journey without Aspire.

Laura & Yac – Madame Tiger

I’ve been with Chris since I started my trade business three years ago, and he’s been instrumental in guiding me through the inevitable highs and lows of running a business. Whether it’s strategic tax advice or simply a reassuring ear during a rough patch, Chris is always there and ready to help.

Mitchell – Vivid Electrical Group

Aspire Wealth has been managing my personal and business tax for nearly 15 years. Without their support, I would not have been able to succeed financially. More importantly, Chris has become a close confidant and the first person I contact when I have a big life decision which will impact my financial position. I’m forever grateful of his support.

Mark – Withandplus

Clint from Aspire Wealth has been my accountant for seven years and has been a wealth of knowledge and support for me and my business throughout that time. Clint is reliable, supportive, and genuinely cares about his clients. He offers sound, ethical, and informed advice in relation to business and personal accounting and has a rare combination of knowledge of the numbers and legislation alongside empathy and care. Would highly recommend Clint to anyone.

Deb – Person Centred Psychology

I have been using Clint from Aspire Wealth for many years. As a registered BAS agent and business owner I trust them with not only my accounts but now many of my clients. They take a very simple approach so people of all levels of financial literacy understand and make doing our taxes and accounting simple.

Karleen – Registered BAS Agent

We’ve worked with Clint Anderson from Aspire for over 14 years, across everything from foundational tax advisory to more strategic financial planning. Clint brings a clear, pragmatic, and up-to-date approach to accounting—grounded in common sense, but also aligned with the fast pace of decision-making and contemporary thinking.
If you’re looking for a trusted advisor who offers clarity, confidence, and genuinely thoughtful guidance, I highly recommend Clint.

Nina – Brand Society

Reel Locations has been using Aspire Wealth for over 15 years, and the service and advice has been consistently outstanding throughout that period. Our (film) industry’s freelance nature and irregular working environments often differ dramatically from a traditional business, but that hasn’t impeded Aspire’s ability to provide clear assessment of our company’s financial position. They’ve guided us through several business restructures, and helped us remain compliant with the ATO and ASIC throughout the process. I can’t recommend their services highly enough.

Eben – Reel Locations

I’ve trusted Aspire Wealth with both my personal tax and business structures for over a decade. When I launched Indigo Live, Chris was the first person I turned to. He gave me clear, practical advice on setting up the right financial foundations from day one — and that guidance has been indispensable in helping our company to grow. Chris is sharp, responsive, and consistently across the latest in tax law. I couldn’t recommend him more highly

Clint Anderson

B. Bus, FCPA

Having worked in public practice for over 25 years, Clint has gained an in-depth understanding across many industries, from retail and manufacturing to entertainment and hospitality.

This experience, delivered with passion and professionalism, has helped Clint build on his already proven reputation as a valued accounting and tax advisor.

Clint is excited to continue supporting his clients, whether guiding them through key financial decisions or helping them adapt to new challenges.

A lifelong AFL Collingwood supporter, Clint knows all about passion and dedication – both on and off the field.

When he’s not helping clients navigate the complexities of tax and accounting, you’ll find him courtside, coaching his son’s basketball team. A huge New York Knicks fan, he’s always up for a chat about their latest game. He’s also a keen traveller with plenty of stories to share.

Chris Cowlishaw

Chris is a recognised tax advisor with over 25 years of experience helping businesses and individuals make smart financial decisions. 

Chris’ friendly and straightforward approach has earned him long-term client relationships built on trust and results. He cuts through the jargon, with clients appreciating his ability to simplify complex issues and provide clear solutions.

“Just like I’ve set up my own financial plans, I apply the same care and strategy to helping my clients – what works for me, works for them.”

As a founding partner of Aspire Wealth, Chris has always strived to exceed client expectations, believing that Aspire can play an integral part in their success.

When he’s off the clock, you’ll likely catch Chris cycling or cheering on his beloved Queen’s Park Rangers Football Club. He’s also a proud North Melbourne footy fan (Go Roos!), while favourite bands include New Order, Duran Duran, and Oasis.
