I graduated with a Bachelor of Science in Accounting. In undergraduate school, I became fascinated about taxes. This led me to graduating Chapman Law School with an emphasis in tax in 2013.
Initially, I worked in workers compensation but decided to eventually pursue my interests in tax law. I have been representing taxpayers for many years. My experience in workers compensation and helping injured workers obtain the benefits they deserve has given me a unique perspective of what it takes to help those that are disadvantaged. I continue to bring this perspective and sense of duty when representing taxpayers before the...

As an attorney and enrolled agent (EA), I have represented countless taxpayers before the IRS. I have worked on tax issues ranging from federal and state tax audits, tax debt collections, and appeals. I routinely have tax liens and wage and bank levies released for taxpayers.
As an attorney, I chose to practice tax law because I truly enjoy helping people who feel powerless and helpless when confronted with government bureaucracy, such as with the IRS and state tax agencies.
Tax law is considered an area of administrative law, but within its own niche. When taxpayers are up against the wall and...
