Eva Budnik
Senior Tax Manager
Eva obtained her Bachelor’s Degree in Business Administration from Baruch College of CUNY and Master’s Degree in Accountancy from San Diego State University. She started her professional accounting career with an internship at Aldrich Advisors in San Diego. Later, she accepted a full-time position with Lindsay & Brownell, also in San Diego, where she developed a strong understanding of tax matters involving trusts & estates, high net worth individuals, and entities. Whether it’s optimizing tax strategies or offering insights into financial management, Eva brings a dedication to excellence that empowers clients to make informed and strategic financial decisions.
Before pursuing her passion for accounting, Eva managed a wide array of residential and commercial real estate portfolios in San Diego, CA. Her interest in real estate developed organically after accumulating 10+ years of experience operating her family’s residential renovation business in New York City. Eva’s first job after college was in life insurance sales where she gained an in-depth understanding of individuals’ and businesses’ financial needs.
Eva attributes an equal weight of importance to each of her careers as each experience has developed her personally, professionally, and has prepared her for being a trusted advisor in the tax world.
She lives in Carmel Valley with her children and Casper, the family dog. Eva enjoys walks on the beach, runs at Torrey Pines, skiing and working out. Her favorite hobby is travelling, and she strives to visit Poland at least once a year to spend time with her parents.
