The Tax Workroom Approach
“Debbie was very personable and knowledgeable! I would highly recommend Tax Workroom! ”
Black and White
The parts of the tax code that are clearly either acceptable or not acceptable.
GRAY
The parts of the tax code that need to be interpreted and grounded in research.
Anyone can prepare an accurate tax return utilizing the “black and white” of the tax code. True savings come when successfully navigating the vast area of gray embedded within the code and understanding that tax is assessed as life happens not when you prepare the tax return.
You may view your return as a stack of receipts, journals entries, and complicated tax forms. We view the tax return as an expression of your life. A coded snapshot of your story. The outcome of your return, whether a refund or balance due, is the result of the choices you make as you navigate daily living.
We approach your tax return with a wide lens. We want to know your story so that we can help you achieve your dreams by navigating the complicated world of income taxes.
Why choose Tax Workroom?
It’s simple. You matter.
Tax Workroom understands that you are singular, and your tax needs are unique to you. Anyone can prepare a tax return by applying the same basic rules, the black and white, from one client to the next, but few take the time to tailor the experience, to work in the gray, to fit your unique situation.
Tax Workroom is different. We are accessible. We listen. We encourage. We coach. We work for you educating, planning, and preparing all while rooting for you to achieve your dreams!

Tax
Education
You must understand the possibilities.
Before you can begin to tax advantage of all the savings the tax code has to offer, you must understand the possibilities and the potential pitfalls of the possibilities because ultimately you are responsible for your return. We at Tax Workroom enjoy educating our clients on ways to find savings in the gray of the tax code.
We understand that everyone learns differently, so we give you bits of information to inform you through lecture series, a tax column, blog posts, social media, and in person planning sessions.
Tax
Planning
We listen to your story and tailor a plan that fits your goals.
We believe that tax planning is so important to you that we give our tax clients a free one-hour planning session each year. We also encourage you to call or email us throughout the year when life events may impact your tax planning goals. This helps avoid surprises come tax time.
Available May 1st - December 31st.
Tax
Preparation
Think Gray!
We put your story into motion taking advantage of all the credits and deductions that are allowed.
It is impossible to maximize your refund or minimize your tax liability if we don’t know you and your story. The more we know your story, the more we can help find ways to save.
Anyone can prepare a tax return utilizing the “black and white” of the tax code, but true savings come when successfully navigating the vast area of gray embedded within the tax code.
Audit
Services
For those times your story gets called into question by the Internal Revenue Service by way of audit letters or in-person audits, Tax Workroom will represent you before the IRS to defend your story.

My Story
I graduated from Windsor High (yep, Vermont!) a year early and moved to the Sunshine State (you got it, Florida) where I spent 18 years splashing around in the ocean and forging a future in antiques and art because my friends felt my true passion for accounting was too dull (they obviously don't know the nature of the tax business).
In 2009 I sold my home and had no plan of where to live or what to do next. I had always had a dream to live in an Airstream, so I threw caution to the wind, bought an Airstream and traveled with my two dogs (Diesel and Daisy) selling at outdoor antique shows. When I found myself in Vermont, I fell in love with the area as an adult and decided to pursue my passion for numbers.
Tax planning and preparation is not so different from purchasing and selling antiques. It’s all about the story, the numbers and how the story is told!
