Professional Experience

Crystal Goldsmith is a Partner in the Tax Department of Prager Metis, a member of Prager Metis International Group. With over 25 years of accounting experience, her career demonstrates a commitment to client service excellence and deep expertise in tax planning and compliance.

Crystal began her professional journey at Pannell Kerr Forester (PKF) in Phoenix, AZ, where she spent approximately 5 years working primarily in the audit department. During her tenure at PKF, then one of the 15 largest accounting firms globally, she gained valuable experience working on audits for both small and large companies, including publicly held organizations.

After relocating to North Carolina, Crystal briefly worked in the accounting department of an ink manufacturing plant in Charlotte before joining Prager Metis. There, she initially split her focus between assurance services (preparing audits, reviews, and compilations) and tax preparation for individuals, businesses, estates, and trusts.

Over the years, Crystal has strategically shifted her practice to specialize in tax work, helping clients navigate complex tax obligations while identifying opportunities to minimize tax liabilities. Her dedication to client service and analytical capabilities have established her as a trusted advisor and led to her advancement to Partner at Prager Metis.
