I am a Certified Public Accountant offering Tax Preparation and Small Business Consulting and Nonprofit Consulting services to individuals, families, sole proprietorships and nonprofit organizations.
You may be looking for a CPA that can help you with your individual tax return, start a business, or run your small nonprofit better. This website has a listing of my services, articles, links and answers to your questions about working with a CPA.
Many people are hesitant to use a full service CPA firm because they are afraid it will be an impersonal and expensive experience. My practice is very personal. I keep my practice small so that I know each client personally. Because I work from my home office, my costs are low and so are the fees I charge my clients.
I don’t want expensive fees to stop a small business owner or nonprofit from getting the advice they need to get started properly. If after browsing this site, you feel comfortable with me, contact me by e-mail and we’ll discuss how I can help you.
