Tax Senior

How would it feel be financially well? To understand enough about taxes and finances that you feel in control of your finances, know the questions to ask, and can make informed decisions that work for you and your goals?

I am here to help you achieve that!

My approach to taxes is to take time to listen to you, ask you questions and help you understand how things work in a way that makes money feel manageable. Whether you are an individual, a small business owner, or the education/employee engagement manager for an organization, I can help you learn what you need to know so you and your team can ask good questions and make decisions that fit your priorities and move you towards meeting and maintaining your goals.
 
My background comes from working at E&Y and PwC and having exposure to big firm accounting and to different ways of working with both individuals and organizations.  Through my experiences, I saw first-hand the value that individualized, judgment-free support provides.
 
I combine this background and my focus to provide realistic, simple advice since the day I started my practice in 2003. I take on a limited client load so I can provide support throughout the year to answer questions and help my clients become comfortable with and confident about taxes and money.
 
In fact, many clients hire me to support them on a consulting basis and refer to me as their “advisor on speed dial.”
 
One of my favorite ways to provide value is to help organizations empower their employees by providing financial wellness benefits.  This includes providing interactive workshops woven with real life scenarios and fun, I help teams understand that money can be a source of power in addition to sometimes being a source of stress.  And since learning about money is a great equalizer, my programs benefit both the employees and the company!

Talar Life Coaching

I learned the skills for coaching to pay it forward. I help the underprivileged and marginalized Americans catch up by using my skills and sharing my privileges. (Currently not taking clients.)

Certified Life Coach

Vista Ford Lincoln

Fisher & Phillips LLP

My job was to keep management out of lawsuits and help them manage employees properly.  I regularly advised employers regarding best practices to avoid employment-related claims and defended employers in employment litigation.  I also regularly presented training to clients and business groups regarding various employment related topics, including sexual harassment, family and medical leave, disability accommodations and hiring/firing practices. While in law school, I served an internship with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission in San Francisco. I am fluent in Armenian.  I was admitted to the California State Bar in 1999 and admitted to the Utah State Bar in October 2009.

Attorney

General Counsel by day, Children's Book author by night| Life Coach | Raising Money for Orphanages | Mama | Wife | Author | Yogi | Runner | Bookaholic | Jesus, Tolle, Brene Brown & Brandon Flowers groupie

I wanted to be a movie star after playing Marc Antony in Julius Ceasar when I was in the 5th grade but my father shut that down real quick. Instead, I became a lawyer. As my father reminded me frequently before he died in 2006, I get to act and get a steady paycheck too. 

I'm on LinkedIn for smart, fun conversations with good humans and to help others whenever I can, which is why I decided to become a Certified Life Coach. Coaching is currently on ice and I'm only accepting VIP pro bono clients. (I didn't become a coach to get rich.)

I was a file clerk, associate, and partner at Fisher Phillips, a national employment law firm, until my client, Vista Ford, made me an offer I couldn't refuse. After 12 years with Vista Ford, I joined ComplyAuto, to continue serving the auto dealerships that had once been my clients. 

I serve as General Counsel, Corporate Secretary, and VP Human Resources for ComplyAuto because I still identify as an employment lawyer.   

My side-hustle is raising money for orphanages in Lebanon, where I'm from through Society for Orphaned Armenian Relief (SOAR), a 501c3 charitable organization. 

I write and publish children's books based on grown-up books to raise money for SOAR. 

"Ralphy's Rules for Living the Good Life.," starring my furry client, Ralphy, is inspired by The Four Agreements by Don Miguel Ruiz. (I am also a dog walker but I am not accepting new clients because Ralphy had me sign a non-compete.)

"Ralphy's Rules for Feelings" is based on life-coaching skills I learned through The Life Coach School. 

I donate net proceeds to Bird's Nest orphanage in Beirut and the Armenian Evangelical Boarding School in Anjar. 

Thanks for taking the time to learn about me. Hope to see you around.

You can find me most days on LinkedIn (the 24/7 coffee shop). Lmk how I can support you here. No strings attached.
