Simone Reed

Simone Reed is the founder of High Rise Ledger, a tax preparation firm supporting small business owners and individuals. While operating a therapy practice for a decade, she became increasingly intrigued by the foundational business practices required to succeed financially. She understood firsthand that most business professionals are experts in their field, not so much their finances.

After filing taxes with general commercial tax preparers, she'd leave with a pit in her stomach knowing they did not ask the right questions. With an intuitive feeling that she grossly overpaid on her taxes. This is what lit the flame that started High Rise Ledger.

For years she has formally educated herself in taxes and finances with the end goal to launch High Rise Ledger in mind. She has successfully completed the IRS Annual Filing Season Program to ensure all practices meet current ethical and regulatory standards. High Rise Ledger is ready to get down in the nitty gritty details of your taxes with you. We are committed to ensuring no question goes unanswered, and that you receive prompt and professional service.
