It’s a Family Affair

Here’s Our Story…

Pauline

In 2011, she started as an assistant at a renowned local tax firm answering telephones and making coffee for clients. 2 years after, Pauline was given an opportunity to work as a tax preparer and she took off running. Since then, she has built a solid clientele based on her passion to help others understand the intricacy of their tax situations.

Johnny

With 10+ years experience in finance, he found learning about taxes to be a very organic experience. In spring of 2019, Johnny’s former employer moved his entire department to Utah, giving him the option to relocate. Johnny couldn’t imagine raising his family anywhere other than in California, where he grew up. He turned down the offer and, with his wife, decided to take the next step in his career. Thus, Zac Rose & Associates began.

Together

As husband and wife, Pauline and Johnny have now become business partners to build a legacy for their growing family.

“We thrive in small business, and are excited to grow alongside our peers and community. We look forward to working with you!”

- Sincerely, The Zacarias Family

Meet Cecile, aka CeCe.

Cecile and Pauline first met while working in a local optical shop in 2006, and have been close friends since. Aside from being one of the kindest people you will ever meet, she is known to wear multiple hats in life with ease and grace. Cece currently works in the medical and retail field while also managing our firm from behind-the-scenes. With 20+ years experience in customer service, her knowledge and professionalism has become an integral asset to our firm’s infrastructure. Cece’s other hats include a mommy extraordinaire, team meeting jokester, self-made interior designer, and fashion stylist to her husband, Lawrence, and 2 boys, Bailey and Milo.

Meet Selle.

Selle and Pauline met during their college days, and have never dared to lose touch. She and her husband Jake have been life-long friends of Pauline and her family. While Jake extensively travels for work, Selle is the primary caretaker of the household and to their adorable little girl, Oli. Prior to kiddos, Selle and Pauline even dabbled in small business together, with Selle making signage of beautiful hand-written calligraphy. With that, Selle knows a thing or two about organization, efficiency, and overall hard work…not to mention, she can whip up an extremely delicious homecooked meal any day of the week. Her role in our administration department is essential to keeping our books moving, and vital for a steadfast flow upon tax season. We are extremely lucky to have her on board as an addition to Zac Rose & Associates.
