Why I do this work

I've been doing tax work for 19 years, and I genuinely enjoy it. The puzzle-solving. Explaining complex situations clearly. Helping people understand systems that feel intimidating.

I grew up around entrepreneurs and watched talented people build businesses only to get tripped up by tax compliance. That's what led me here—combining detail-oriented problem-solving with an understanding of how businesses and investments actually work.

The tax code is fascinating when it collides with new technology or evolving financial activity. Cryptocurrency taxation is a perfect example: complex technical activity meeting unclear IRS guidance. That's where careful work matters most.

Accessibility matters

Technology and I go way back—my first DOS laptop in 1989, my PalmPilot, my Treo smartphone. Running a virtual practice built around text and asynchronous communication isn't a pandemic adaptation. It's how I've always thought work should function.

This approach also aligns with how I think about accessibility. As a proud parent of a disabled young adult, I understand neurodiversity and flexible communication. Some people think better in writing. Some prefer voice messages. Some need time to process information before responding.

The way this practice is structured accommodates all of that naturally.
