Bio
Valerie Echter
I hired Sonya in 2012 to help me with a personal tax issue due to a filing mistake by a previous tax preparer I'd been working with. That issue lingered for over 2 years due to IRS delays. During that entire time, she kept me up to date on the process, called the IRS on my behalf, and had a firm handle of all the details every step of the way. I had zero stress and ended up getting a full refund by the IRS. Since 2012 I have had Sonya prepare my personal and business taxes and I can honestly say that she is very diligent in her work, knowledgeable on tax laws, and thorough on her tax prep. Furthermore, she is always open for a call or meeting to discuss questions. I would HIGHLY recommend Sonya for both personal and business tax preparation.

Sonya is such a sweet soul and wealth of information. Her vast experience gives her the ability to bounce ideas from so many perspectives, which has been great for me as a young accountant starting my own business. You always need that person in your corner that gives you those tips and wisdom that can help you to do better. On a more personal side, Sonya has given me some of the reality of owning your own business as an accountant and what that entails, which has helped me to better approach growing my business and having the correct perspective. I would definitely recommend her for any ECommerce or regular accounting business that wants a kind, intelligent CPA that is willing to break things down for you to understand and then apply. Go get Sonya!
