Tax Reporting & Compliance

• Lead end-to-end preparation and review of quarterly and annual income tax provisions, including current and deferred tax calculations, valuation allowance analysis, and footnote disclosures.
• Oversee preparation and review of federal and state income tax returns, estimates, and extensions for consolidated, combined, and standalone entities.
• Manage responses to federal and state audit inquiries and tax notices.

• Maintain and enhance internal tax controls and process improvements.
• Lead the R&D tax credit process, partnering with internal teams and external advisors.

AI-Driven Tax Practice

• Reach for AI first — use Claude, Claude Code, and similar tools to accelerate research, draft technical memos, analyze notices, run calculations, and design repeatable workflows.
• Default to AI, don't defer to it. Automate what's mechanical, build structured workflows for what's in between, and protect your focus for the analysis that actually requires you.
