The company’s origins were organic, starting with preparing returns for family and friends.

Ms. Robinson’s journey to becoming a tax and accounting professional is both personal and impressive. Her story began when she migrated from Jamaica to the U.S. growing up in Miami-Dade County. Her passion for the field was sparked early on, while she was a student at Miami Dade College (MDC) and volunteering at Jackson Hewitt Tax Services. This hands-on experience laid the groundwork for her future career. She went on to earn an associate in arts degree from MDC before completing her education at Florida International University. There, she earned two significant degrees: a Bachelor of Arts (BAcc) and an Executive Master of Science in Taxation (EMST). This academic foundation, combined with her volunteer experience, demonstrates her long-standing commitment and deep educational background in accounting and taxation.

When she is not working, Ms. Robinson dedicates her time to several personal interests and community service activities. She invests in the future of her profession and mentoring the next generation of tax professionals, sharing her knowledge and experience to help guide aspiring individuals. Outside of her professional and philanthropic endeavors, she enjoys a variety of leisure activities, including art, music, sports, and travel. Her greatest priorities, however, are her faith and family, as she cherishes her role as a mother to her son and an aunt to her nieces and nephews.
