With sixteen years of work experience in accounting and tax, I have developed a strong expertise in tax preparation and audit for individuals and businesses. As a Tax Manager at Rickhoff Business in Balance, I managed a team of tax professionals and oversaw the delivery of high-quality tax services to a diverse client base. I also partnered with other departments to provide tax advice and support on various business transactions and projects. Previously, as a Field Auditor II at WPS Health Solutions, I conducted audits of federal contracts and health care programs, ensuring compliance with regulations and standards. I previously taught accounting courses as an Adjunct Instructor at East Central College and Columbia College, sharing my knowledge and passion for the field with students. I also took over my mothers Tax and Accounting business for 10 years, before shifting the business back to her due to me relocating. I am a Tax Generalist. I have extensive experience with Partnerships, Corporations, Trusts, tax-exempt organizations, 1040s, Schedule Cs, Schedule Es, and Schedule Fs. I am always eager to learn new skills and technologies to enhance my performance and efficiency. My core competencies include tax research, analysis, planning, reporting, and compliance, as well as audit planning, execution, and documentation. I am driven by a mission to help individuals and organizations achieve their financial goals and optimize their tax outcomes. I value collaboration, integrity, and innovation, and I seek to bring diverse perspectives and experiences to the team.
