Jason Stoch, UpTrend Advisory
Jason moved to the United States from Sydney in 2013 and spent over 3 years living in New York City. Having enough of the cabin fever that the cold winters bring, he moved to sunny San Diego where he now resides.
While living in New York City, Jason noticed that the majority of his Australian friends did not understand the US tax system and began to help them traverse the landscape as an American CPA and Australian Chartered Accountant.
Fast-forward to today, Jason established UpTrend Advisory, a boutique accounting, business and tax advisory firm where he specializes in expat taxes for individuals and is passionate about helping Australians navigate the US and Australian tax system for better outcomes.
Josh Pugh, America Josh
Josh moved to New York City from Adelaide, South Australia in the middle of a cold 2017 winter. While there was no real plan but it was clear that the city and its 7 million+ people meant for all sorts of adventures and opportunities.
After arriving though it was clear that transitioning your life from one country another was a pain, and there was no real advice to help you order a sandwich properly, let alone arrange for real things like Social Security. So he started America Josh.
America Josh is an online guide and community network helping expats from all over the world move to and thrive in America.
The mission of America Josh is to make the transition more straight forward and life abroad less stressful on individuals. AmericaJosh.com includes guides, reviews, tools, recommendations, and community-generated content to help with a move whether they are in the early stages of planning, have a firm plan to move, or have already made the move.
