About Skylar Taft
CPA candidate with a Master’s and Bachelor’s degree in Accounting from Loyola University Chicago and prior experience in Federal Credits & Incentives Tax at Grant Thornton LLP. My public accounting experience included supporting R&D tax credit analyses, cost segregation engagements, and multi-state compliance initiatives. In addition to my accounting foundation, I bring professional experience in business operations and budget oversight, strengthening my analytical thinking, financial discipline, and ability to work in structured, deadline-driven environments. I am currently pursuing CPA licensure and seeking a tax position within a firm that values mentorship, technical development, and long-term growth.
