"After graduating UCLA in 2000, I started my career as a financial Audit Associate at Deloitte & Touche LLP.  After I went back to school for my law degree and passed the California Bar, I re-entered the accounting industry when I graduated law school in 2006.  I specialized in tax at PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, concentrating mostly in the International Tax Services Group with some experience in the State and Local Tax practice.  In 2011, I took on the role of International Tax Manager at Dole Food Company Inc., working on international tax projects (e.g., M&A, transfer pricing studies, and IRS audits), the quarterly and annual international tax provision computation (e.g., Subpart F, Sec. 956, and Non-U.S. FIN48), and the annual international tax provision review for some of the foreign subsidiaries.  In May 2013, I used my broad background at AECOM Technology Corporation as Senior Manager, Tax Planning, assisting with various M&A deals and both US and international compliance and planning projects.  Throughout my tax career, I have worked on individuals and small businesses, which grew to the point that I needed to make a choice.  As a result, in February 2015, I joined SRDSL, Certified Public Accountants as a partner, focusing on tax and accounting services for a wide range of individuals and businesses in a variety of industries.• Accounting services. • Bookkeeping services. • Estate and trust planning and tax preparation. • IRS and FTB representation. • Personal and business tax planning and tax preparation.• International tax planning and preparation.• Business management for television, film, music, restaurants, other businesses"
