Stephanie Godoy knows small business owners work hard. They spend their time trying to bring a vision to life, so accounting and IRS filings can easily fall by the wayside. That’s where Godoy comes in. In her nearly four-year journey through accounting work, one directed by God’s guiding hand, Godoy has helped small businesses avoid big tax issues.

“I clean up the mess,” said the owner of S. Godoy & Associates LLC. The firm helps clients get compliant and stay compliant on tax filings, even if they were delinquent to begin with. They also offer sound advice. Topics range from the types of tax bills you incur after pulling money from your retirement account early to why relying on certain online tax filing software may put you at a higher risk of an audit

“The tax code is thousands of pages long,” said Godoy. Still, filing on time is crucial and doesn’t have to be painful with the right professionals on your team. Her firm works with small business owners, freelancers and independent contractors, professional service providers, creative professionals, and startups or new businesses. They provide bookkeeping, financial reporting services, tax return preparation and filing, payroll services, payroll tax services, entity formation, and sales tax services. Through it all, Godoy operates from a deep place of faith.

“I’m not just doing accounting work,” she said. “I’m walking through what God has assigned me in life.”
