About us
Our Story
We value, above all else, the relationships that we build with our clients and recognize the uniqueness that each client brings to our firm. These relationships form the foundation of our practice.
In 1999 Pat Bauer brought her love of preparing tax returns from a side-hustle to a small yet thriving CPA practice.
Throughout our twenty-plus years in business, we have grown from a one-woman shop and our first tax software appropriately named “Pencil Pushers”, to our current all-women powered team of nine working with an advanced array of cloud software mostly in a virtual environment.
While technological advances have allowed us to stay nimble and adapt quickly, our core values, personalized solutions, and friendly atmosphere have remained our unwavering anchor over time.
Today, our team of professional women offers a wide range of expertise and experience in a trusted neighborly way.
Over the Years
We Believe
- In kindness and candor
- In clarity
