Sharyn Fisk brings a wealth of experience from her recent role as Director of the Internal Revenue Service’s Office of Professional Responsibility (2020-2025). In this capacity, she set and maintained professional standards for over 400,000 tax practitioners across the nation.

With over two decades of experience in tax law, Sharyn’s career exemplifies the intersection of ethical practice and technical excellence. She began her journey as an attorney-advisor for Judge Maurice Foley at the United States Tax Court and later became a partner at the prestigious firm of Hochman, Salkin, Rettig, Toscher & Perez (Beverly Hills), where she represented hundreds of clients before the IRS, Department of Justice Tax Division, and state taxing authorities.

Sharyn has held numerous leadership positions in the tax community, including the Taxation Sections of the American Bar Association, California State Bar, the Los Angeles County Bar Association, and the Beverly Hills Bar Association. She served on the IRS Advisory Council from 2016 to 2019. She is a certified tax law specialist with the California State Bar and a Fellow of the American College of Tax Counsel. Her commitment to the profession extends to pro bono service, where she has trained military VITA volunteers, worked as an attorney-advisor for a LITC, directed Cal Poly Pomona’s VITA program, and assisted unrepresented taxpayers in the US Tax Court.
