He is the son of Alf Bostrom, founder of UAC. In fact, Allen remembers accompanying his dad on many business trips, learning, firsthand, how to practice sound financial management. At one point, Alf advised Allen, “If you want to have anything to do with business, you have to understand accounting.” As a result, Allen earned a BS in accounting from the University of Utah and eventually became a CPA. Before working as an accountant, Allen was a bank clerk, a salesman at a men's clothing store and an office manager for a car dealership. Then, for 12 years, Allen worked as an accountant in various departments within one of the largest corporations in the world, Exxon Mobil. There he focused on limited areas of the accounting process and decided that he wanted to pursue a more fulfilling career as a contract accountant for small businesses. In this, Allen followed in his father’s footsteps, helping small businesses enjoy greater profitability and growth as a result of the application of sound accounting principles. In 1992, Allen (a practicing CPA) and his brother Ken, joined Universal Accounting Center and helped it become an international institution with campuses located across the nation and a large online presence with multiple websites.〔() Upgrade.com "Teaching Basics Propels Company to Inc. 500 List."〕 Allen lives in Sandy, Utah, with his wife Sheri.
