Timalyn received her Bachelor in Science in accounting from Bellarmine University in Louisville, Kentucky.
She interned with Crowe Horwath, a CPA firm ranked in the top 10 in the world, for three seasons. While there, she did tax preparation and planning for private held companies, publicly traded companies, and some financial institutions. She fell in love with tax law and discovered that she wanted to represent taxpayers that did not know what to do when facing the IRS. She later sat for a special exam to become an enrolled agent.
