San Francisco Investors, who is your CPA?

I've used a CPA for the last decade who has done well by me, but now that I'm getting into REI more seriously, I'd like to work with someone that focuses in that area. When I asked my guy some detailed questions, he seemed to give more boilerplate answers than I'm used to from him, and I feel like I may be able to do better. I live/work in San Francisco. Who do you guys use?

@Gabe C. I used local for the past few years but had trouble finding someone that had expertise at the level I wanted as I continue to grow. I then went on the search and realized I could give some of these out of staters a call. Blew my expectations out of the water (knowledge, willingness to provide references, Skype/FaceTime calls, etc.). I quickly realized I personally like working with someone who answers their phone/responds to emails and treats their clients great as opposed to someone down the street that I do not see very often in person anyways.

Feel free to shoot me a PM and I can follow up with you offline about my experience.
