I’m your financial partner on your road to success. My clients trust me to maintain their Company’s bookkeeping, provide Quarterly Financial Statements for insight into their operations, and strategically plan and file their taxes. I hold 6 years of public accounting experience, ranging from global company audits down to individual tax planning for the mom & pop shop down the road. I earned and maintain my CPA license in the great state of Connecticut. I am also a member of the CT State Society of CPAs, where I continually learn from other professionals in my practice and stay up to date on the latest developments in the accounting industry. Further, I’ve gone through extensive training and am a Quickbooks ProAdvisor, a certification I maintain annually. Testimonials Here are a few testimonials from my clients, which you can also read from my Quickbooks ProAdvisor Profile: “Andrew was instrumental getting my Company’s books cleaned up to file taxes. I had separated my business expenses from my personal when I first started but I did absolutely NO bookkeeping for an entire year and had NO idea how I was going to file my taxes. Luckily, my friend referred me to Andrew and he was the best. Not only did he file my taxes for me but now he takes care of my accounting for the year and I get quarterly updates from him that are very helpful for my business. I would highly recommend him for anyone looking for a CPA” "I'm delighted to write this review for Andrew. He has saved our small business thousands with his tax expertise. His guidance and support throughout the year has been invaluable, and we look forward to leveraging his services for years to come. Andrew is a financial wizard, and we highly recommend him!” My Process When you contract me for services, you can expect an initial consultation so I may understand the full breadth of services you require, and you can inform me of any items that are of particular concern. Following our initial consult (and depending on the job you need fulfilled), I’ll likely need you to provide me your documents & information so I may begin fieldwork. I will outline all of these items for you after our first touchpoint. Once I have everything, I’ll diligently begin services and reach out to you periodically (as needed) to ensure I’m preparing everything accurately and efficiently for you. At the conclusion of my fieldwork, I’ll pass along the deliverables and set up a time with you to talk through any questions you may have. If you have outstanding questions, comments, or concerns – I’ll update on my end and get another date on your calendar to debrief the changes.
