Niko Tsirlis, Angel Investor

From helping universities in the Midwest build esports programs and running 25,000-person events to owning a professional esports team competing internationally for 8-figure prize pools, my journey has been anything but traditional for a CPA. After my Fortune 500 experience and esports exit, I now help entrepreneurs and finance professionals leverage AI to drive economic growth in underserved markets, both through consulting and strategic investments. I specialize in working with or investing in: -CPAs and accounting firms looking to integrate AI workflows -Fractional CFOs seeking competitive advantages through automation -Entrepreneurs in traditional industries are ready to embrace AI transformation My goal is to ensure AI's benefits reach beyond Silicon Valley into the Midwest to create meaningful economic impact in communities and industries that need it the most, whether through consulting, education, or investment.
