More About Alad...
I grew up in Flushing, Queens, the son of Israeli immigrants. From an early age I understood what it means to navigate two worlds — and how overwhelming the U.S. tax system can feel when your life doesn't fit neatly into one country's rules.
I studied accounting at Queens College, earned my degree in 2002, and spent the next several years building my career from the ground up — bookkeeper, payroll accountant, tax advisor — at a top 100 public accounting firm. The more client work I took on, the clearer something became: most people were either overpaying or completely in the dark about what they owed. Both problems were fixable. That's what kept me going.
In 2018, I earned my Enrolled Agent designation from the U.S. Treasury — the highest credential the IRS grants to tax professionals — and opened my own practice.
I'm a real estate investor and business owner myself, which means I know what it's like to sit on the other side of this conversation: trying to make decisions with incomplete information, limited time, and a lot at stake. That shapes how I work with clients — practical, direct, no jargon.
One of the most meaningful stretches of my career came during COVID-19, when I helped clients secure millions in relief through ERC credits, PPP, and other programs. Getting that money into the right hands, fast, is something I'm still proud of.
I'm fluent in Hebrew, which lets me serve Israeli-American clients in their first language and understand the compliance picture that comes with maintaining ties to Israel — bank accounts, pension funds, real estate, and the rest.
My practice is based in Flushing, Queens, NY. I work with clients across the United States via video conference — making it easy for Israeli-American families and small business owners in Los Angeles, Miami, New Jersey, Houston, and beyond to get specialized guidance without the commute. Outside of work, I enjoy travel, fitness, and golf.
