True wealth doesn’t exist in a vacuum. Wealth comes from a relationship amongst income, assets, liabilities, investments, and taxes. Creating a comprehensive plan increases and protects your net worth.
It’s often said that the only unavoidable things in life are death and taxes, but that’s not necessarily true! Many tax codes exist to encourage individuals and businesses to invest in themselves and their communities. If you know the tax codes well, you can take advantage of those opportunities!
Many clients, having achieved financial success, have assets that continue to produce revenue. Having a plan for managing your legacy reduces the stress and anxiety amongst your loved ones as well as the amount of taxes going to the IRS as opposed to your family.
Retirement planning and wealth management, when done correctly, maximizes income and reduces expenses. Choosing the correct legal structure and investments for your unique situation gives you the best return on investment while limiting what you pay to the IRS!
Andrea had no hope of escaping a CPA career.
Even as a kid she took her allowance money, figured out what she wanted to buy, then budgeted around those goals.
And nothing has changed. Except she now helps other people with money management!
Andrea began her career with KPMG, but opted to leave in 1990 to work for a smaller, family owned business.
Having been in public accounting since 1987, Andrea has been licensed as a CPA in Texas since 1989. She graduated Cum Laude with a Bachelors in Business Administration, Major: Accounting, with equivalent minors in Finance and Economics from Texas A&M University. (As any good accountant, she loves what she does immensely and is rewarded when clients find her helpful. She enjoys working the long hours AND likes it when she makes a difference.)
In addition to being a CPA, Andrea is also licensed as a Registered Investment Advisor with New Century Investments and offers investment advisory services.
Andrea “cleanses her accounting palette” by enjoying home decorating and travel…even though she claims not to be very good at home decorating. However, she loves learning about different cultures in her travels to Greece, Europe, and even Orange County. (Ask her about the best surprise in the OC: the best concert ever: Aerosmith!)
She would love to work with you, so give her a call today at

Organizing (and even finding!) all the paperwork that the IRS requires gobbles up precious time. And let’s face it…most people dread it. But I’m a little different…I take pride in tracking down the details and making sure everything is in its place! When it comes time to process W-2’s, receipts, and file the forms, leave it all to us!
Retirement planning has come a long way from just “saving money for a rainy day.” Many people (including accountants!) just choose whatever plan seems to be in vogue at the time. But there are risk management decisions, tax implications, and account fee considerations. Making decisions that don’t match your unique situation could cost you thousands of dollars! I have the knowledge and patience to run all the numbers and recommend the choice that suits YOU.
Like retirement planning, estate planning involves a complicated web of assets, liabilities, and, yes…sometimes volatile family dynamics. Even the closest family relationships can get strained when money is involved. (Sadly, I’ve seen it…) Let our 30 years of experience pave the way for reduced taxes AND harmonious family relationships!

The IRS is never the hero in any movie or book…because it’s always a tale of them taking more than they should. But here’s the real story: tax codes are written to help you take legitimate deductions to reduce tax burdens. But to do so, you have to understand the laws (which change every year!) I read tax codes like they’re a “who-done-it-thriller” (because they are!) so that I can solve the mysteries of your tax planning.
