Meet Charity
Charity Thornton, CPA
Senior Accountant - Tax, Trail CPA
What’s your background and expertise?
I’m a licensed CPA with a strong technical foundation and a passion for helping clients navigate the ever-changing tax landscape.
What values or approach do you bring to client relationships?
I believe taxes don’t have to be overwhelming. My goal is to make things as simple and stress-free as possible. I value clear communication, proactive thinking, and bringing a sense of calm to situations that often feel chaotic. Clients know they can count on me to be thorough, responsive, and supportive—especially when it matters most.
What’s your favorite thing about your job?
I love the moment when a complex tax situation clicks into place—and the client breathes a sigh of relief. Taking something that feels daunting and turning it into something manageable and understandable is incredibly rewarding.
Why did you choose to get into tax?
Honestly? I didn’t choose the tax life—it chose me. But once I found myself in it, I realized how much I enjoy solving problems, digging into the details, and helping people feel more confident about their financial lives.
What do you like to do outside of work?
Outside the office, I like to wander the great outdoors in search of adventure — it’s where I recharge and reconnect.
