A CPA since 1990, Kim started her accounting career in a typical large corporation, paying her dues as a “number-cruncher”. There she learned the discipline and attention to detail necessary for exact and complete bookkeeping and accounting records, which do indeed track or “account for” every financial transaction, the essential backbone of accounting by definition.

She then spent several years in a government agency and in public accounting with a National CPA firm where she gained the experience of working with a wide diversity of clients, large and small. There she honed her skills in accounting, audits, regulatory compliance and understanding of “what the numbers mean” in terms of tracking, managing and predicting the future of businesses.

It was here too that she discovered her true calling – Helping people, helping business owners and professionals to causatively utilize accounting information as a tool for being more successful. With her new found purpose, she formed her own company, Bey & Associates, CPA with 4 primary objectives:

1. Helping wonderful clients keep more of their hard earned cash through tax planning.

2. Taking the dread and stress out of money matters such as taxes, accounting, cash flow uncertainties, etc.

3. Providing practical effective money management counseling as a routine part of tax and accounting services to clients.

4. Giving clients financial prediction in their businesses by giving them the tools necessary to create reserves, make more profits and expand while remaining viable and thus achieve personal peace of mind.

Through ongoing education, with special attention to saving tax money, she keeps abreast of the latest changes in tax codes, typically resulting in savings of hundreds or thousands of dollars in taxes which are often missed by other tax professionals. One such area is through selection of the best tax reporting business form or entity (C-Corp vs. LLC vs. S-Corp, vs. Partnership, etc.). Additionally, her firm retains a specialized tax code research service to ensure that any unusual peculiarity in a client’s business gets fully researched for optimum tax minimization.

Kim is licensed as a Certified Public Accountant in Washington, DC and in Texas. She earned her BBA degree in Accounting from the University of Oklahoma and completed several graduate courses, including Advance Income Tax Research and Business Finance at the University of Texas.
