I have over 8 years of experience managing state income tax compliance, including preparing and filing returns, ensuring accuracy, and meeting deadlines. I’ve worked with multi-state entities, navigating complex tax codes, and implementing software solutions to streamline reporting. My expertise includes reconciling discrepancies, managing audits, and staying updated on legislative changes to ensure compliance.

I regularly attend webinars, subscribe to tax law updates, and participate in professional organizations like the AICPA. I also collaborate with legal and finance teams to interpret new regulations and assess their impact. This proactive approach ensures our tax strategies remain compliant and optimized for any legislative changes.

During a recent audit, I identified discrepancies in prior filings and collaborated with auditors to provide detailed documentation. By maintaining organized records and transparent communication, I resolved the issue without penalties. This experience reinforced the importance of accuracy and proactive compliance measures.

I prioritize tasks based on deadlines and complexity, using project management tools to track progress. I delegate responsibilities to my team when appropriate and maintain open communication with stakeholders. This structured approach ensures all filings are completed accurately and on time.

I analyze state-specific tax credits, incentives, and nexus rules to identify savings opportunities. By conducting regular reviews of tax positions and leveraging technology for data analysis, I ensure compliance while optimizing tax strategies. This approach has consistently reduced liabilities for my previous employers.
