Hire the Best Tax Preparers in Chicago, IL

I am a licensed CPA in Illinois and California with nearly a decade of experience in U.S. tax compliance and advisory.

Throughout my career in public accounting, I have worked with clients ranging from start-ups and high-net-worth individuals to multinational companies. I have also gained significant experience preparing U.S. individual returns that involve cross-border income, foreign accounts, and treaty considerations. Today, I provide federal and multi-state return preparation for individuals, corporations, and partnerships. My work continues to focus on U.S. international tax compliance, including expats living abroad who must file U.S. income tax returns, U.S. businesses owned by non-U.S. persons, and U.S. taxpayers with foreign operations or investments. I also assist with foreign bank and asset reporting compliance and advise cross-border professionals, entrepreneurs, and investors on tax planning and entity structure. Although licensed in Illinois and California, I regularly assist clients throughout the United States and abroad.
