About Natalia Nikulin, CPA, MBA

I became a CPA because I’ve always been fascinated by tax law and how it shapes people’s financial lives. I truly enjoy helping my clients understand their tax situation and make informed decisions with confidence. Being a CPA allows me to serve others with care and integrity, and it brings me real joy to know that I can ease some of the stress that taxes often bring. Helping people feel supported and empowered is what makes this profession so meaningful to me.

What I Do

As a CPA specializing in taxation and a seasoned accounting professional with nearly 20 years of experience, I help individuals and businesses navigate complex tax laws. My background includes expertise in general business and individual taxation, multi-state taxation, taxation of real estate, and more. 

What I Like

Outside of my professional life, I enjoy arts and the outdoors. I’m passionate about theater and music and love attending performances that celebrate creativity and expression. Family is at the heart of everything I do — especially during the holidays, when gathering around the table brings warmth and connection. I also enjoy reading, skiing, and hiking, which help me stay balanced and inspired. As a proud volunteer with my son’s school music program, I take great joy in supporting students during their performances and competitions.
