I don’t just prepare financial reports or file tax returns. I build the actual financial systems and tax workflows that keep e-commerce stores running smoothly, so you never have to worry about sudden audits or penalties.
The truth is, the problem is rarely the accounting software itself. It’s usually how things are set up behind the scenes—the marketplace tax settings, the multi-state configurations, and the messy workflows that happen as you scale. With over 8 years of hands-on experience handling sales tax filings and bookkeeping across the US, UK, and Canada, I step in to fix those specific gaps before they become expensive problems.
What I Do for Your Store:
End-to-End Sales Tax: I handle the whole process—calculating your nexus, handling state registrations, filing returns on time, resolving penalties, and managing audits. I deal directly with state portals like Florida (DR-15), New York (ST-101), and Texas Web file.
Clean E-Commerce Bookkeeping: I make sure your books in QuickBooks Online or Xero are completely accurate and tax-ready. I cleanly integrate everything with platforms like Shopify, Amazon, Walmart, eBay, Etsy, and TikTok Shop.
International Expansion: I manage UK VAT and Canadian GST filings so you can sell cross-border without the administrative headache.
Why Work With Me?
Most accountants just look backwards and tell you what you spent last month. I focus on making sure your current system actually works. We handle the technical compliance and state-level paperwork completely, so you can just focus on growing your brand.
If you want to clean up your numbers and keep your store in perfect compliance, send me a message and let's talk about your setup.

𝗜𝗥𝗦 𝗘𝗻𝗿𝗼𝗹𝗹𝗲𝗱 𝗔𝗴𝗲𝗻𝘁 | 𝟭𝟮+ 𝘆𝗲𝗮𝗿𝘀 | 𝗨𝗦 𝘁𝗮𝘅 𝗽𝗿𝗲𝗽 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗹𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗹𝗼𝗿𝗱𝘀 & 𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗹 𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝗶𝗻𝘃𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗿𝘀
Rental property is where tax dollars quietly disappear — missed depreciation, repairs miscoded as improvements, passive losses left on the table, botched 1031 exchanges. I make sure that doesn't happen to you.
I'm a licensed Enrolled Agent, the highest credential the IRS grants — federally authorized to prepare returns and represent clients before the IRS in all 50 states. Not a seasonal preparer. Not a generalist who touches a few rental returns each spring. A specialist who works in real estate tax year-round.
𝗪𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗲 𝗜 𝗵𝗲𝗹𝗽 𝗺𝗼𝘀𝘁:
• Rental & investor returns — Form 1040, Schedule E, correct depreciation and basis tracking
• Repairs vs. improvements — coded correctly so you don't lose deductions or invite audit risk
• Real estate tax strategy — 1031 exchanges, passive activity loss rules, cost segregation basics
• Multi-state and multi-property portfolios
• IRS notices, back taxes, and resolution — I can represent you directly
𝗪𝗵𝗼 𝗜 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗸 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵:
Individual landlords with one or two doors, investors scaling a portfolio, and busy owners who want it done right without managing every detail themselves.
𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗴𝗲𝘁:
Accurate returns, straight answers in plain English (no jargon), fast responses, and someone who already knows the real estate niche — so there's zero learning curve on your dime.
𝗛𝗼𝘄 𝘄𝗲 𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗿𝘁:
Tell me your situation — how many properties, what entities, any open IRS issues. I'll tell you exactly how I can help and what it'll cost. No guesswork.
Licensed. Federally authorized. Focused on one thing: getting real estate owners the tax outcome they should be getting.
