About
Built on preparation. Focused on people.
A hybrid firm in Kirkland, Washington, working with clients across the United States since 2011.
Pride in Preparation was founded in 2011 by Sshally Sharma, a financial planner, advisor, and accountant.
What began as a local financial practice evolved into a hybrid firm supporting individuals, families, entrepreneurs, and businesses throughout Washington and across the United States.
The firm's approach is rooted in the belief that financial confidence begins with preparation.
Rather than offering one-size-fits-all advice, Pride in Preparation works to understand the complete financial picture behind every client — from taxes and accounting to business decisions and long-term financial planning.
Clients are not simply handing documents to a tax preparer. They are working with a financial professional looking at the broader picture.
