"A lot of women come to me not because I'm a woman but because I'm a sex worker like them, so I just get it, and that puts them at ease," said St. Kitts. In 2005, while operating a home tax office, St. Kitt began looking for additional home-based work to supplement her seasonal tax jobs while she homeschooled her boys.
"Before I knew it, I had escorts, cam models, porn actresses, strippers, phone-sex operators, sex educators, and female impersonators all asking me to file their tax returns, and just like that my tax work blossomed," said St. Kitts.
