DAAXIT was founded by Aaron Mills in 2021. Aaron created DAAXIT after 20+ years specializing in high level financial work in the construction industry. Those years of experience helped lead to the realization that there are so many construction and skilled trades businesses operating today without the professional, knowledgeable, financial guidance that is necessary to grow, thrive and succeed. That's why DAAXIT's mission is to help individuals empower themselves to be better business owners. At DAAXIT, we provide fractional CFO services that create financial clarity and enhance profitability to take construction companies to the next level and attain financial freedom.
At DAAXIT we prioritize working together as a team to ensure that everything we do is done with our core values leading the way: accountability, education, transformation profitability, and transparency.
