About Cross Tax Services

Cross Tax Services was built on the belief that tax work should be accurate, transparent, and grounded in real understanding, not rushed, confusing, or driven by empty promises.

Founded by Stephanie Cross...

Cross Tax Services emerged from a career path rooted in finance, education, and continuous professional growth. After more than a decade working as an insurance agent, Stephanie reached a point where her professional environment no longer aligned with her values. That moment became a turning point.

She pursued formal tax education, earned her CTEC tax preparer designation, and immersed herself in the discipline, first through coursework, then through hands-on experience under the mentorship of a seasoned tax professional with over 17 years in the field. What began as study quickly became commitment, and commitment became mastery.

Through years of continued education, complex returns, and evolving client needs, Cross Tax Services took shape as a practice focused on precision, boundaries, and strategic thinking, serving individuals and small business owners who value doing things the right way.

A Thoughtful, Strategic Approach to Tax Work

Tax law is constantly changing, and so are the ways people earn income and operate businesses. Cross Tax Services exists to help clients navigate those changes with clarity and confidence.

Stephanie works closely with individuals, self-employed professionals, and business owners to ensure their tax filings are compliant, accurate, and aligned with their broader financial picture. Beyond preparation, clients are guided through understanding structure, obligations, and long-term implications, especially when transitioning into LLCs or S-Corporations.

Education is a cornerstone of the practice, but it’s never condescending or overwhelming. The goal is simple: help clients make informed decisions and avoid costly mistakes before they happen.
