Description

I am an independent cross-border U.S. tax, audit, and IT risk consultant supporting EU-based startups, venture capital and private equity funds, founders, and professional services firms with U.S. exposure. My work focuses on helping international clients navigate U.S. tax compliance, information reporting, and withholding obligations in a practical, risk-managed way while aligning with business and growth objectives.

I advise on U.S. entity structuring and ongoing compliance for international groups, including preparation and review of Forms 1120, 1120-F, , , 1040/1040-NR, and related international reporting. I also support clients with treaty positions, withholding tax analysis, W-8/W-9 documentation, and compliance risk assessments for cross-border service arrangements, licensing structures, and founder compensation. For VC and PE-backed businesses, I provide targeted reviews of U.S. tax exposure, ECI risk, and compliance readiness for fundraising, audits, and exits.
