Owner's Profile

Robyn D. Young, CPA, PFS, CSEP

I have enjoyed mathematics since I was a young child, so it was no surprise for me to focus in on taxes and accounting.

In 1996 I graduated Cum Laude from Arizona State University. My career began with Walker & Armstrong LLP, a locally owned accounting firm, working in the tax, audit and accounting areas. Pursuing an interest in the Estate, Trust and Gift tax areas I moved to Henry & Horne LLP for eight years. Further intrigued about investments and financial planning, I joined Merrill Lynch in 2003, where I developed a deeper understanding of insurance and the financial markets. Alas, in 2005 I could no longer deny what a tax geek at heart I am, and opened my own Tax & Consulting practice in Phoenix.

I am truly warmed and further motivated by the trust my clients have in me. It is an honor to be referred by my respected colleagues, friends and other professionals, whom over the years, I also consider friends.

Personal:

Any client, family or friend of mine knows that taxes are really fun for me! Of course, my other activities, including my so-sweet daughter and family and friends, keep me balanced.

So much to do - so little time! I enjoy time with my daughter and loved ones; futzing around the house, yard, reading, enjoying the occasional cigar and hiking when possible.
