ABOUT US.

We are a family-based business with over 25 years of combined experience in taxes.  We love working with families and small business owners. We have worked with Duke University International House as well as a large-scale firm out of NY (Liebert Associates). Team members include: Sally Trauco, Omar Trauco, and Dakota Trauco.


We get pleasure knowing our clients have someone in their corner for taxes. Taxes are overwhelming for the majority of people and must be done right. We offer affordable, convenient and accurate taxes so you do not have to worry about them.  We take our clients taxes as seriously as our own.


Our purpose is to help families and small businesses navigate ever changing complicated tax codes and give them the best representation ever. We are available year-round and are always available to clients if they have tax questions through the year. We want to provide tax services not just a one stop to have returns done.  We feel this sets client up to make better tax decisions in life. Our purpose is to help families file their taxes with comfort and trust.


Our Value is that we support clients all year and help guide them through life’s changes so they have the information they need to make better financial decisions. We do not disappear like the franchise offices when the season closes. We are open minded and approachable to sharing financial information. This can be very private for many people. Approachability is one of our strong points.
