About Us

Your What is our Why

30% of businesses fail within the first year of start-up, 50% fail within five years! One of the primary reasons contributing to business failure is poor financial management, another is poor business plans. Our goal is to help businesses thrive with financial awareness and business advisement.

I founded Tax Council for Small Business owners, Self-employed and On-Demand professionals like myself in the spirit of entrepreneurial expansion. My passion is expansion! I'm all about awareness and growth. Sales and Marketing are important, delivering a product/service are too, however what really drives a business is it's owner. Who you are shows up in how you operate your business & finances. My job is to keep you aware and accountable. We need to know our numbers, we need to know our patterns and trends, we need to be in-tune.

Jacqueline M. Lewis

Tax Accountant & Enrolled Agent

I specialize in Accounting, Tax, and Business services. I am passionate about helping individuals run successful, compliant businesses. I really enjoy educating my clients and keeping them in tune. This is where advisory comes into play. Many business owners, self-employed included, aren't aware of financial requirements and obligations and fall out of compliance quickly. Also, they don't know how to apply tax law to their benefit - Let me help you!
