Hi! I'm Braden,
Owner/founder of Drag Tax.
WHY Hire Us.
Well aside from being fun, fabulous, the most smart, and humble, we're licensed professionals whose hobbies include tax education and preparation.
BORING CREDENTIALS
Honestly, I'd love to just delete this section, but I also want you to know that I'm not some random on the internet.
I graduated from law school in San Diego, & took and passed the bar exam. 💅 That makes me an official lawyer. After that, I went and got my master's degree in tax law. It was a party 🥳
I started a law firm, worked 1-on-1 with 100+ creative small biz owners. I discovered that I loved teaching and empowering entrepreneurs to kick ass in business. In my first business I work primarily with wedding professionals. I wrote a book, have released 230 (and counting) episodes on my first podcast, and have spoken at dozens of events. I decided to launch Drag Tax to branch out and help folks like you. Those who, while doing amazing things, may need some fine tuning with the finance pieces.
LESS BORING STUFF
I'm an Enneagram 7. Entrepreneurship is my passion, but as a 7, I, of course, have many other interests including collecting some fancy-ass cookware, running, CrossFit, Pokemon, and Harry Potter, obvi.
My fashion influence is Victoria Beckham, but like if she decided to really commit to atheleisure wear and Birkenstocks.
In undergrad my majors were political science and Russian. I also studied German, business, and Ukrainian just for funsies. So naturally, my favorite drag queen must be Yekaterina Petrovna Zamolodchikova, but you can also call her Katya.
WHY I SPECIFICALLY WANT TO HELP YOU
Charisma ✅ Uniqueness ✅ Nerve ✅ Talent…
Well that depends. Am I great at makeup? No. Hair? Nope. Singing, dancing, or acting? Definitely not. Comedy? You tell me.
But taxes, yes.
You have all the other talents. And, it takes talent and practice to monetize a creative passion and turn it into a career.
By working with creatives, artists, and performers, I'm able to use my skill in law and tax while helping an industry that's given so much to me and further uplifting the LGBTQ+ community. That's why I love what I do.
