Katie Auslen is a Senior Manager at Sorren, where she supports individuals and family-owned businesses with tax planning, compliance, and consulting services. Katie works with clients across industries including retail, agriculture, professional services, real estate, manufacturing, and wine production. Whether helping vineyard owners or consultants, she brings practical solutions and a steady, strategic approach. Katie’s specialty lies in working with closely held businesses and self-employed individuals. As a small business owner herself, she offers clients a unique perspective on the financial decisions they face on a daily basis. Clients rely on her to make complex issues more manageable, from clarifying financials to improving accounting systems, and to help them gain a clearer understanding of their position at any time of year, not just at tax time.

Katie lives in Windsor, CA, with her husband. With their two children now grown, they’re embracing life as empty nesters. Outside of work, Katie enjoys traveling, reading, spending time with family and friends, and taking long walks with their Goldendoodle, Ellie.
