Treasurer    BARBARA MARX, EA joined CSTC in 2000, soon after which she became a member of the San Gabriel River Chapter Board of Directors.   She currently serves as Treasurer for the Greater Long Beach Chapter, representative to the Los Angeles Area IRS Practitioner Liaison meeting, and contributes the Tax News column to the Greater Long Beach Chapter newsletter.     Barbara worked in private accounting for most of her career until she was introduced to public accounting in 1991.  She soon found that she was delighted with the diversity and direct client contact and opened her own practice in 1996 in Bixby Knolls area of Long Beach.  She preparesindividual and business income tax returns, does bookkeeping for varioustypes of small business, from corporations to non-profit organizations, including payroll and sales tax reporting.  She also provides audit representation.      Barbara attributes much of her comfort level in her business to the unsurpassed education and networking opportunity offered by CSTC. Nowhere else is there an organization whose members support one another in such a helpful and non-competitive environment.   Past - President     LINDA BECKETT began bookkeeping during her high school years for work experience credits. In the mid 70's she worked with her father-in-law, who was a member of CSTC. She eventually asked her to become his partner in his bookkeeping and tax practice. As her husband’s business flourished, her time became devoted to the bookkeeping needs of that business. She entered the tax profession again in 1992 and immediately made the CSTC North County Chapter dinner meeting one her first stops. Remembering the education and networking opportunities that had been offered to her when her father-in-law had invited her to attend the CSTC meetings in her early years gave her hope for starting up again. She has been on the North County Chapter board serving as director, 1st and 2nd VP and President of the Chapter. She has been a speaker at her chapter’s dinner meetings, as well as the Fall Workshop presented by the San Diego area chapters. She credits her association with the members of CSTC with her success in developing a tax and bookkeeping service with three employees, 50 bookkeeping and payroll clients, and more than 375 tax clients.
