About Magnolia CPA

Meet your CPA.

Magnolia CPA is a one-CPA firm by design. Bianca M. Allen runs it the way she'd want her own family's CPA to run - careful, responsive, and genuinely interested in the work.

Background

Twenty-five years across the table.

Both an accountant and a business manager/consultant.

Bianca is a University of Washington graduate with a Finance undergraduate degree and an MBA. Over twenty-five years she's worked as an Accounting Manager, a CFO, and a General Manager across businesses of varying sizes - so when she's looking at a set of books or a tax return, she sees both the numbers and the business behind them.

That dual perspective shapes the work at Magnolia CPA. A tax return for a small business owner isn't just a filing - it's a conversation about decisions she's made before. Audit work isn't a checklist - it's a careful read of the operating reality behind the financials.

The firm

Founded in Magnolia, on purpose.

Bianca relocated to Seattle's Magnolia neighborhood in 2002 and established Magnolia CPA to:

“Have a work-life balance, stay off the congested streets of Seattle and the Eastside, and do something I loved with people in my own community.”

The result is a small CPA firm by design. Clients work directly with the CPA, not through a layer of account managers. Calls get returned. Engagements stay scoped. The objective, in her own words: “to continue to build a successful CPA firm that strives for professionalism, quality, and responsiveness to clients.”

Magnolia CPA also owns Bee's Bookkeeping next door at Suite 314, so day-to-day bookkeeping and CPA-level work coordinate cleanly under one ownership.

A little personal

The household & the chickens.

A Seattle native originally from Wallingford, Bianca raises her family in Magnolia - with a seventh-grader and a small menagerie. The six backyard chickens are, in her words, an endless source of free advice.

The chickens have so far declined to comment on tax policy.
