Monica began her tax and accounting career in 1998 in Monterey, California, earning her Enrolled Agent designation (​federally licensed tax professional authorized to represent taxpayers before the IRS and prepare both federal and state tax returns​​)​ in 2002. Monica attended Monterey Peninsula College and Golden Gate University, where she developed a strong foundation in accounting and business that continues to guide her work today.

After moving to Phoenix, she founded North Phoenix Tax and Accounting in 2005. A visit to Payson’s scenic Rim Country inspired a permanent move in 2017, and by 2020, her firm became Copper State Tax & Accounting, reflecting her broader Arizona reach.

Known for helping individuals and small businesses achieve financial clarity and confidence, Monica provides personalized, accurate, and long-term guidance. She is passionate about building lasting relationships with her clients, ensuring they feel supported through every stage of their financial journey. Outside of work, she enjoys spending time with her horses, caring for her French Bulldogs, and quilting.
