With over a decade of experience in individual and business tax preparation, Collier Brown has served clients across a broad spectrum of income levels and industries. He began his career as a tax preparer and entrepreneur at a boutique firm in Fayetteville, Arkansas, where he developed a strong foundation in tax compliance and client relations.

Collier later joined a prominent firm in Downtown Dallas, where he specialized in preparing tax returns for high-net-worth individuals and closely held businesses. This experience expanded his expertise in navigating complex tax situations and providing tailored solutions to sophisticated clients.

He went on to gain additional experience at a mid-sized firm, where he refined his skills in proactive tax planning—developing strategic approaches that he now applies in his current practice to help clients minimize liabilities and optimize financial outcomes.
