Most people don’t get excited about 280E. Riana Linsky does. As a cannabis tax and accounting expert at Dark Horse CPAs, she helps dispensary owners, cultivators, and operators turn one of the industry’s toughest challenges—280E compliance—into a manageable, strategic part of their business.
Riana specializes in tax advisory, compliance, and financial forecasting for cannabis entrepreneurs who want more than just a tax return. She partners with owners to build clear reporting systems, plan for cash flow, and uncover tax strategies that strengthen both their operations and their bottom line.
Before joining Dark Horse, Riana built her expertise at both small and large firms, but it was the freedom to run her own practice under the Dark Horse platform that gave her the perfect equation: Riana + Her Own Practice = Dark Horse CPAs.
Outside of the numbers, she’s all about live music, exploring trails and waterfalls, and time with her partner Robert, plus their four-legged crew—Spike and Lea.
