    "I met Angelina along with Nancy U. at the CLA leap training in Minnesota recently. We connected quickly after learning that we work in the same state. They were always up for fun activities, they shared important information with me whenever they got it and they had my back. My training experience was much better because I had them by my side."

    "Angelina did a great job with taking ownership of a partnership return. She has a wonderful attitude. As an associate, she still has plenty of technical tax to learn, but she is very willing and eager to do so. She was easy to work with and I appreciated her organization and communication. She is a hard worker and has a lot of potential as she continues to learn. She would do great at leading projects!"

  • Nancy U.
    "Angelina is great to work with! She is super organized; I cannot count the times I've digged through my emails for her desk manuals on how to do certain things like filing MD PPTs online, dynalinking, etc. She goes above and beyond by sharing with the team and this is very helpful, especially in the middle of busy season when there isn't much time to research on our own! I've recently been working on tax returns that she prepared the prior year, and I love seeing her documentation on where numbers are being pulled from and where the info should be entered on the tax return. Not many people practice good workpaper documentation, so Angelina is definitely ahead of the game here!"

    "Angelina did wonderful work to get us through the 9/15 deadline. She took charge on a partnership return (which is extremely complicated and last minute) and updated K-1s, workpapers, special allocations and really did an amazing all-around job.

    I COULD NOT have made it through without her. I’m very glad she’s a part of the team and I’m impressed by how quickly she picked up on their quirks as a client."
