A personal CPA practice in San Jose, serving individuals and businesses across the greater Bay Area since 2012. Tax preparation, tax planning, financial statements, and advisory, handled directly by the CPA who signs the return.
What the practice does About ChrisThe work of the firm falls into two areas: tax and advisory for individuals, and tax and advisory for businesses.
And honest scope: this practice does not do bookkeeping, payroll, or audits. If that is what you need, you will hear it straight, along with where to look.
Chris Faria is a Certified Public Accountant serving individuals and businesses in San Jose and the greater Bay Area. He earned his Master's in Accountancy from San José State University in 2012 and has spent every season since helping local clients navigate their taxes with confidence.
His approach is practical and personal: clients come from every sector, from families and professionals to founders and contractors, and every one of them works directly with Chris, across the desk in San Jose or entirely remote. Today the practice serves a long-standing base of returning clients, many of whom have been with the firm for years, and that continuity is the way Chris prefers it: the person who prepares a return is the person who signs it, season after season.
The same rhythm every season, for every client.
Every engagement begins with a conversation, by phone or across the desk, so the work is scoped honestly before it starts.
Clients receive a simple checklist of exactly what is needed and a secure way to hand it over.
Every return is walked through in plain English before it is filed, and signed by the same CPA who prepared it.
For current clients and scheduled matters, the office is reachable by email or phone, and meetings happen in person in San Jose or entirely remote.
