Strategic Tax Planning

Building the Rock Steps to Wealth
​​​​​​
At Rockstep2Wealth, our name embodies our mission: to lay the rock-solid steps that guide our clients toward enduring financial independence and generational wealth. Each “step” represents a strategic foundation - from entity structuring and proactive tax planning to investment integration and legacy preservation - all built with precision, foresight, and unwavering stability. We believe true wealth isn’t achieved through chance; it’s constructed intentionally, one strategic decision at a time. Rockstep exists to design those decisions, align them with the tax code, and turn them into tangible, lasting results.
We go beyond the role of typical CPAs. As advanced tax strategists, we help you navigate the complex IRS tax code and uncover valuable incentives and strategies to maximize your after-tax wealth. Our approach is holistic - integrating tax, entity, retirement, and estate strategies into one cohesive plan.
We proactively analyze your situation throughout the year, ensuring your strategies are implemented on time and with precision.
From tax-advantaged investments and entity restructuring, to retirement layering and estate continuity, every recommendation is designed to help you keep more of what you earn and convert tax liabilities into wealth-building opportunities

Meet Our Founder

Message From Robert: “When you save a million dollars in taxes, that’s not just a million in your pocket - that’s the equivalent of earning about two million dollars pre-tax. Think about it this way: if you’re in a 50% tax bracket, you’d have to make two million just to keep one. And if you invest that million wisely, in over 20 years it will more than triple in value. So that million you save in taxes is really worth $5 to $6 million today. That’s why proactive tax planning isn’t just about reducing your taxes - it’s the single most important investment decision you can make for your financial future."
Robert Sung Yoo, EA is the founder and Senior Strategist of Rockstep2Wealth, where he helps high-income earning entrepreneurs and professionals transform complex tax rules into powerful wealth-building strategies.
After earning his degree in Finance from the University of Maryland, College Park, Robert’s early career included working in venture capital with KTIC America and Parakletos @Ventures to evaluate startup investments and conduct financial due diligence. He later founded Eliya Software, which he operated for ten years, and led a government contracting manufacturing company, successfully exiting in 2020.
Following the sale of his company, Robert transitioned into strategic tax planning, where he discovered the power of the tax code as a tool for building wealth. That passion led him to establish Rockstep2Wealth, Inc., a firm that takes a holistic, proactive approach to tax strategy, entity design, and generational wealth planning.
As both a licensed Enrolled Agent (EA) and an active real estate investor, Robert applies the same advanced strategies he designs for his clients.
