Kristine Stevenson, EA is the owner of Proverbs 16:16 LLC. She works with individuals and small business owners that want to keep more money in their pocket, get out of debt, and avoid trouble with the IRS.

Author, radio show host, and money coach, she spent 7 years working at the IRS learning the inside systems and talking directly with thousands of angry, scared and confused taxpayers helping them understand 'what went wrong.'

As a client, you will work with directly with Kristine in a one-on-one judgement-free zone. She will work to fix your current tax problem, coach you to better long term results, and learn how to avoid future tax problems. Her guarantee? You'll sleep better at night.

All work is performed on a flat fee basis, there are no hidden fees or surprises. You will know the cost of all services before signing an agreement. Work is performed in a two part series with no obligation to continue.

As a personal finance expert and small business coach, I will also work with you to gain insight into your finances. Many of my tax resolution clients become my personal finance or small business coaching clients.

If you'd like to catch me live on-air or call in to my radio show, "Dollars & $ense" with Kristine, go to KMIL radio 105.1 FM or KRXT 98.5 FM on the 2nd Saturday of every month from 9:00-9:30am CST. I alternate discussion between common IRS issues taxpayers face, as well as personal finance topics.
