Financial & Tax Strategy for Athletes Playing on a Global Stage.
Keep more of what you earn — with clarity, structure, and long-term vision.
As a professional athlete, managing your finances across borders, leagues, and income types comes with unique complexity. At Nicole Madaisky CPA Inc., we specialize in proactive tax strategy and financial planning for internationally mobile athletes and their families — helping you stay compliant, build wealth, and make confident financial decisions throughout your career and beyond.
With firsthand experience in the world of professional sports — including U.S., Canadian, and overseas tax systems — we understand the demands and dynamics of your profession. Our services are designed to provide personalized, strategic support that protects your income, simplifies compliance, and supports your long-term financial goals — both during your playing years and after.
What Sets Us Apart
We specialize in working with elite athletes navigating fast-moving careers, complex income structures, and cross-border obligations. We understand the pressure, the pace, and the need for trusted support behind the scenes — and we built this practice to deliver exactly that.
This isn’t a volume-driven firm. We work with a select number of clients each year so we can go deep — offering high-touch, strategic guidance that grows with you throughout your career and beyond. You won’t be handed templated advice or feel like just another file. Instead, you’ll get proactive planning, clear communication, and a financial partner who helps protect what you’ve earned and position you for long-term success — on and off the ice, field, or court.
For athletes who treat their finances like their game: seriously.

-
What qualifies someone as a “Private Client”?Private Clients are women with complex tax needs — typically earning $500K–$5M+ — who want personalized, year-round strategic support, not just annual filings.
-
Do I need to have a corporation or Holdco to work with you?Not necessarily. Many clients do have corporate structures, but we also work with executives, consultants, and investors managing equity compensation, real estate, or cross-border income.
-
Do you offer investment advice or financial planning?We specialize in tax strategy, corporate structure, and financial modeling. We do not provide investment advice, but we collaborate closely with your financial advisor to ensure your plan is tax-efficient.
-
How do your fees work?We work on a flat-fee, monthly retainer model designed to reflect the value of ongoing, proactive advisory — not just annual tax prep. This means you'll know exactly what’s included and what it costs, with no hourly billing or surprise invoices. Our private client services are structured as annual engagements, billed monthly, to support long-term planning and consistent collaboration.
-
What is the minimum commitment?All private client engagements require a 12-month commitment, billed monthly. This structure ensures we have the time and continuity to design, implement, and refine a tax and financial strategy that aligns with your ambitions — whether you’re scaling a business, negotiating equity, or navigating cross-border career moves. You deserve advice that evolves with you. A full-year engagement allows us to: Align with the natural tax and financial planning cycles Be proactive, not reactive Deliver the level of strategic partnership and care our clients expect At the end of each 12-month term, we revisit your needs and adjust scope or pricing accordingly — ensuring continued alignment as your situation evolves.
-
Do you only work with women?No — but we created this offering specifically to serve high-performing women who often feel underserved by traditional advisory firms. This page is designed for them.
