Simran Brar

I am an accounting professional and recent graduate of the University of the Pacific with experience in tax preparation, financial analysis, and business operations. During the 2025 tax season, I worked as a Tax Intern at Kemper CPA Group, where I prepared individual and business tax returns, reviewed financial documentation, and assisted with tax compliance and client service.

In addition to my accounting background, I have spent more than six years helping manage my family's dry-cleaning businesses, which operate multiple locations throughout California's Central Valley and Sacramento region. Currently, I oversee operations for two Sacramento locations, managing employees, customer relationships, business development initiatives, and day-to-day operations.

I am passionate about accounting, finance, and business growth, and I enjoy applying analytical thinking to solve problems and improve processes. I am currently seeking opportunities where I can continue developing my expertise in accounting, tax, finance, and business operations while contributing to organizational success.
