I believe the true value of tax preparation is rooted in proactive tax planning. With the complexities of tax law, there are countless opportunities for savings through strategic planning. That’s why I encourage my clients to maintain open communication with me throughout the year, so we can work together to minimize year-end tax liabilities and make sure no opportunities for savings are missed.

Before founding Erickson Tax and Accounting, I spent several years as a shareholder at Viridian Advisors, where I honed my expertise in comprehensive financial planning and tax strategies for individuals and businesses. During that time, I gained invaluable experience working closely with clients to not only meet their immediate needs but to craft long-term financial plans that aligned with their goals. My time there gave me a strong foundation in understanding the diverse needs of clients across industries and set the stage for me to launch my own practice, where I could focus more on personalized service and tax efficiency.

I was born and raised in the Seattle area and have called the Pacific Northwest home my entire life. I earned my accounting degree from the University of Washington and am a passionate supporter of Husky basketball and football. Outside of work, I love traveling and am always on the lookout for new destinations to explore—so if you have any recommendations, I’m all ears!
