About Autarky Tax and Accounting | CPAs & Enrolled Agents in Tucson & Chandler, AZ
About the Firm
We Are Your Partner in Success
Autarky Tax and Accounting was built on a simple belief: your financial life deserves more than a once-a-year tax return. We are a team of CPAs and Enrolled Agents who take a hands-on, year-round approach to tax strategy, accounting, and financial clarity — for businesses and individuals across the country.
Who We Are
Tax and accounting expertise you can count on
We started Autarky because we saw too many clients being underserved — getting rushed through tax season, receiving generic advice, and never hearing from their accountant until the following April.
We do things differently. Our team takes the time to understand your full financial picture, builds a strategy around your goals, and stays engaged throughout the year so you are never left guessing.
Every engagement is led by a licensed CPA or Enrolled Agent. You will always work directly with a credentialed professional — never a junior associate or an automated system.

Our Mission
To simplify your finances so you can focus on what matters most.
At Autarky Tax and Accounting, our mission is to give every client — whether a solo entrepreneur, a growing business, or a high-income individual — the kind of attentive, strategic financial guidance that actually makes a difference.
We believe that good accounting is not just about filing on time. It is about understanding your goals, reducing what you owe legally and strategically, and building a financial foundation that supports your life and your business for the long term. That is what we show up to do for every client, every year.
How We Work
What sets us apart
We are not a volume shop. Every client relationship is built on direct access, proactive strategy, and honest communication.
Deep Tax Knowledge
Our team has spent years studying how audits are triggered, how compliance risk builds, and how to structure your finances to avoid problems before they start.
Proactive, Not Reactive
We review your situation year-round, not just at tax time. We flag issues early, adjust your strategy as your finances change, and make sure nothing catches you off guard.
Plain-Language Guidance
No jargon, no runaround. We explain what the tax code means for you specifically, what deadlines matter, and what steps to take next — in plain English.
Direct Access to Your Advisor
You work directly with a CPA or Enrolled Agent on every engagement. No junior staff, no handoffs. The person you meet is the person handling your account.
