The Accountant You Can Understand®
No one ever explains: taxes. Whether you're looking at your budget, retirement, saving, investing....really, anything - you're swimming in the tax ocean. With over three decades of experience working with individuals, families, and organizations on real-life tax decisions, she knows how overwhelming it can all feel. She advocates for real change in our financial lives through her service on IRS advisory committees, several AICPA committees, and through board work for the Georgia Society of CPAs. She wants everyday people to be empowered to make informed decisions about their financial lives as well.
Cecily’s approach is simple: plain English, real examples, no shaming, no talking down, and no pretending this is easy. She teaches the tax side of earning, saving, spending, giving, retiring, and everything in between because taxes are the thread woven through every financial choice you make.
If you’ve ever thought, “Why has no one explained it to me like this before?” you are in the right place.

"The world cares about money, I care about people, so I figure, the more people who know about money, the better the world will be."
