We are a boutique firm built on one belief: you shouldn't need a large accounting firm to get large-firm thinking. Whether you're an individual planning your financial future or a business entity — LLC, S-Corp, C-Corp, or Trust — we bring the same rigor, personal attention, and tax authority to every engagement. We've served individuals and small businesses in Phoenix with tax preparation, accounting, and financial planning — with an AI-enhanced workflow that means faster, more accurate results and more time focused on strategy. Angelina Schmitz, EA is your single point of contact for everything financial.
As a small Business Accountant in Phoenix, we handle the full financial picture — bookkeeping, payroll, tax preparation, financial planning, and strategic advisory — with a tech-optimized workflow that means your books are always current and your tax position is known. Our job isn't just to file your tax return accurately. It's to make sure you don't overpay, never miss a deduction, and always know what's coming before it arrives.
We use modern AI-assisted accounting and review tools to help identify trends, unusual transactions, reconciliation issues, and potential tax-saving opportunities more efficiently.
Technology helps us work smarter — but every account is still reviewed by an experienced tax and accounting professional.
This allows us to spend more time helping clients with:
These areas require judgment, experience, and accountability. That's what clients hire us for.
Technology helps improve speed, consistency, and accuracy — but it does not replace professional oversight or personalized financial guidance.

"Maxine" came to us because she didn't understand why her taxes were so high. She was "barely" making a profit in her new business to support herself. We were able to help her understand that, in her case, converting her LLC to an S Corporation would maximize her tax savings. For compliance, we put her on a salary, set up an accountable plan for her home office, and we tax plan to maximize her retirement contributions.
An established contractor came to us with an IRS letter showing they wanted a full audit of their books for the business. We helped him compile the required documents such as bank statements, loan statements, purchase documents, bank reconciliation as well as organize the receipts he had. Since he kept very good records we were able to show that he didn't take enough deductions and he received an refund of just over $20k. He is now a weekly bookkeeping client.
"Pam" wanted to help her husband "Ron" in their business by doing the invoicing and bill paying. She tried to use Quickbooks' online to do these tasks but because she didn't fully understand accounting or the program she called us for help. In one hour she received specific training for her business, her chart of accounts got set up properly, and she was trained on how to use the program. She really enjoys what's she's doing so we are on retainer for any questions she has as well as year end review before the books go to their tax preparer.
"Joe" left his job and started his own service business. He contacted us because a company was requesting his W9 form. He didn't like giving out his personal information so he called us to see what his options were. We were able to guide him through setting up an LLC, obtain his EIN as well as register for his business license. We now do his accounting quarterly which makes it easy for us to help him maximize his tax deductions.
Missed filing your taxes? If you are like "Jim" and are behind on filing your taxes for several years - not to mention your bookkeeping hasn't even been done - we can help! "Jim" had 3 years of bookkeeping to be done and 3 years of tax filings. We love these types of projects! We were able to get him caught up, file his taxes, tax plan for the upcoming tax year and he is now a monthly client.
"Patrick and Lisa" have a great business and as it was growing so was their tax bill. They contacted us to see what they could do and were wandering if they were missing deductions somewhere. During the interview we learned that they had 3 children ages 5,10, and 13. The 13 year old loved to help "Patrick" during the summer. We were able to help them add the 13 year old to the payroll and explained the rules for compliance and documentation. That first year they were able to expense an additional $10k.
