Who I help

Three kinds of clients who get the most from one-on-one help.

Year-end planning · Cierre del año

Moves to make before Dec 31.

After New Year’s, your return mostly reports what already happened. Before it, you can still change the outcome.

  1. 01 Freelancers & owners

    Size your last estimated payment

    Calcula tu último pago estimado

    The fourth-quarter estimated payment is due January 15. Compare what you have paid with what you have earned while there is still time to adjust.

  2. 02 Anyone who paid contractors

    Collect W-9s before 1099 season

    Pide los W-9 antes de la temporada de 1099

    Forms 1099-NEC for contractors you paid are due January 31. Ask for W-9s now, while people still answer.

  3. 03 Every business

    Reconcile every account through Dec 31

    Concilia todas tus cuentas al 31 de diciembre

    Bank, card and payment-app balances that match on December 31 make January’s tax work faster and the return more accurate.

  4. 04 Landlords

    Separate repairs from improvements

    Separa reparaciones de mejoras

    Repairs and improvements are treated differently. If you bought, built or renovated this year, ask whether a cost segregation study makes sense.

  5. 05 ITIN holders

    Check that your ITIN is still active

    Revisa que tu ITIN siga vigente

    An ITIN not used on a federal return for three years in a row expires at the end of the third year. Renewing early helps avoid refund delays.

  6. 06 Employees with RSUs or ESPPs

    Review vesting, sales and withholding

    Revisa tus RSU, ESPP y retenciones

    RSUs that vested and ESPP shares you sold this year can leave you under-withheld. Check before December 31 while you can still adjust.

Meet Yeni Lopez · Founder & Principal Accountant

She learned the words the hard way. Now she teaches them to her clients.

Growing up, financial literacy wasn’t something Yeni’s family talked about. They didn’t even know the words. That confusion is exactly what pushed her to earn an Associate of Applied Science in Accounting and to build a career around giving people the clarity her family lacked.

Over a decade later, including six rigorous years at a specialized CPA firm, she handles the complex parts herself: full-cycle bookkeeping, large weekly payrolls, equity compensation and multi-state compliance. Now she brings that experience directly to small business owners and individual taxpayers, without the corporate overhead.

“Al crecer, la educación financiera no era un tema del que mi familia hablara. Francamente, ni siquiera conocíamos esas palabras.”
