Hi! I’m Hasib, founder of TaxScrubs. My journey to being a tax professional is a little unconventional and deeply personal—which is why I’m so passionate about helping others navigate their taxes.

I graduated university with an Accounting degree and started working for one of the Big 4 accounting firms. I was well on my way to becoming a CPA, just one exam away, when I was laid off during COVID. It was the most challenging time of my life, but it was the turning point that led me to start my own tax firm.

During that time, my wife Layla started travel nursing. It was an incredible opportunity for us to see the country and for her to grow in her career. I said goodbye to my life in Canada, moved to the U.S., and applied for a green card. We quickly realized how complex the tax situation becomes when working as a travel professional.

While waiting for my work visa, I dove deep into the IRS tax code, brushing up on everything I needed to know to tackle our new challenges. Once my visa was finally processed, I became an Enrolled Agent, which allows me to represent clients before the IRS. I knew that with my professional background and personal experience, I could help healthcare professionals like Layla navigate the complexities of their taxes.

That’s how TaxScrubs was born. I didn’t want to crunch numbers for big corporations anymore—I wanted to solve real problems for real people. I’m committed to making tax season seamless for healthcare professionals, especially travel nurses, who work across borders and have unique tax situations.
