Work History​
I have been doing bookkeeping and advisory since I accidentally stumbled into a temp
job in 1997. From there, I have had the pleasure of learning from many talented
entrepreneurs and business people. Owned my own business for 3 years before joining
The Tax Trailer in 2006.

Work History
That was then and this is now.  The important thing: my home is at The Tax Trailer.

Family Situation​
Married to Paul, the coolest dude ever. Imogene is my super radical daughter.
Polito and Lilith are my new rescue mutts. 12-18 chickens (# will fluctuate).

Things I love
My Family and friends. Music. Singing. Travel. Animals. Organization (yay!)
Shopping (hate to admit). The day after my hair is done. Food. Learning new
things. And you of course! LOVE FEST!

Things I do not love
I have decided to not go there...but I can for sure complain over a drink or two.

What I do at the Tax Trailer
I have decided to not go there...but I can for sure complain over a drink or two. I am the COO and I run the office. I am head of Account Services and specialize in
bookkeeping, advisory, software and systems efficiency.

What I love about the Tax Trailer
You!​​​

Things I Love
Making things that I can wear, making things that I can eat, traveling, dancing, wine, World War II era spy novels, Fauvism, Cubism, Suprematism, the Mummy movie franchise, sunny days, rainy days, snowy days, blackened marshmallows.

Things I Do Not Love
Sloth. Not to be confused with sloths. I love sloths. I think their patience and determination are admirable qualities. 

What I Do At the Tax Trailer
Tax preparation and bookkeeping. 

What I Love About the Tax Trailer
There's a great can-do spirit here. I feel lucky to work in a place where teamwork is at the core of business operations. We also truly support and believe in our clients. ​
