I have strong knowledge of tax regulations and compliance requirements, ensuring accurate filing and timely submission of returns while minimizing tax risks. My approach is detail-oriented, ethical, and focused on delivering reliable financial solutions that add value to every client I serve. I am committed to professionalism, confidentiality, and continuous learning to stay updated with changing accounting standards and tax laws. If you would like, I can customize this bio with your name (Lawrence Otieno), years of experience, software skills (e.g., QuickBooks), and Kenya tax systems (e.g., iTax, KRA).
