Taxes shouldn’t feel like a once-a-year fire drill. I help high-net-worth individuals, entrepreneurs, and growing businesses transform tax compliance into a year-round strategic advantage. My goal is simple: ensure you keep more of what you earn, remain fully compliant, and make financial decisions with total confidence. I don’t just "check boxes" or look in the rearview mirror. I take a forward-looking approach to tax planning, focusing on liability minimization, cash flow optimization, and the total elimination of surprises. By understanding the “why” behind your numbers, I help you position your business for maximum tax efficiency. What I specialize in: • Strategic tax planning & preparation • Cost segregation study • Partnerships (Form 1065) • S-Corporations (Form 1120-S) • C-Corporations (Form 1120) • Individuals (Form 1040) • Foreign-owned U.S. entities (Proforma 1120 & Form 5472) I also work closely with new and scaling businesses, guiding entrepreneurs through entity formation to ensure the most tax-efficient structure from day one. To support ongoing growth, I provide bookkeeping and financial analysis that delivers clear, high-level insights you can actually use to make better decisions. I believe the strongest partnerships are built on transparency and proactive communication—not last-minute emails. When you work with me, you gain a dedicated advisor who thinks ahead, explains the complex in simple terms, and is invested in your long-term success. If you’re looking for a proactive tax partner—not just a preparer—I’d be happy to learn more about your situation and discuss how a thoughtful tax strategy can improve your bottom line.

Services include, but are not limited to: Consulting: Nexus Analysis-let's figure out where you need to register for sales tax based on physical or economic nexus.

I am an Enrolled Agent (EA) and QuickBooks Online ProAdvisor who focuses on U.S. small business taxation, especially S corporations, partnerships, and LLCs. My work centers on owners who want one person handling the full picture: business returns, personal returns, and the underlying bookkeeping that feeds both. Before launching my own firm in 2021, I spent nearly a decade in private industry managing multi-entity general ledgers, month-end closes, and a large ERP transition to NetSuite. That experience means I approach every engagement with the end in mind: clean financials that tie out, supportable tax positions, and paperwork that stands up if someone at the IRS starts asking questions. For business clients, I offer a deeply integrated bookkeeping and tax service: Entity tax returns: Preparation of S corporation (1120S) and partnership (1065) returns, including K-1s for owners. Owner/individual returns: Bundled preparation of the business owner’s 1040 and, where applicable, a spouse’s return so the whole situation is handled together. Ongoing bookkeeping: Monthly QuickBooks Online maintenance, reconciliations, and basic close so year-end tax work is straightforward instead of a fire drill. Payroll coordination: Helping set up and monitor reasonable compensation for S corp owners and coordinating with payroll platforms to keep wages, payroll taxes, and books aligned. Advisory support: Budgeting, cash-flow and profit projections, and practical guidance on estimated taxes, distributions, and how business decisions will flow through to the owner’s return. I also work with individuals and families who need thoughtful 1040 preparation rather than one-off “file it and forget it” work, especially where there is a small business, rental activity, or multiple income sources involved. As an Enrolled Agent (EA), I am a federally authorized tax practitioner with unlimited practice rights to represent taxpayers before the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) in matters such as audits, appeals, and collections. In practice, that means I can stay with you from initial planning and accounting through filing and, if needed, communication with the IRS. If you are a U.S. business owner looking for a long-term relationship where your books, business returns, and personal taxes are handled as one connected system, this is the type of work I take on.
