Thank you for considering me for your next role or project! I’ve been a dedicated Bookkeeper on UpWork for over 5 years, partnering with individuals and businesses to meet their QuickBooks needs. As a fellow small business owner, I deeply value the power of clear financials in making confident, strategic decisions. That same passion drives me to provide exceptional support to other business owners navigating similar challenges every day. As a business owner or manager, you already juggle countless responsibilities to ensure your company’s success — managing your books doesn’t have to be one of them. Whether you’re launching a new venture or managing an established business, I’m here to handle all of your bookkeeping needs. There’s nothing more rewarding to me than helping my clients maintain clean, organized financial records. One of my greatest strengths is my ability to problem-solve quickly and learn on the fly. I’m a Level 2 Certified QuickBooks ProAdvisor with over 8 years of extensive bookkeeping experience. Over the years, I noticed a growing gap in the market — a lack of truly capable and trustworthy bookkeepers who provide consistent, high-quality support. That realization inspired me to provide bookkeeping services to business owners, where transparency, accuracy, and communication are at the core of everything I do. I specialize in nonprofit, e-commerce, and service-based small businesses. My approach is centered on open communication, strategic planning, and timely, accurate financial reporting. I offer ongoing weekly or monthly support and genuinely enjoy the challenge of cleanup projects! Areas of expertise include: * New QuickBooks account setup (discounts available through a ProAdvisor) * Accounts Receivable & Payable * Monthly Account Reconciliation * Payroll Solutions (including Employer State Tax Registrations – UI/WH/PFML) * Cleanup Projects (for businesses that have fallen behind) * Transaction Coding * Financial Reporting (P&L, Cash Flow, Balance Sheet) * Chart of Accounts Development * Existing QuickBooks Account Discounts (25-50% off your current monthly subscription) I look forward to connecting with you and learning more about your business!

Hi! With over 15 years of experience in real estate bookkeeping, accounting, tax, and investor services — and as a significant real estate investor myself — I bring a perspective to your books that goes far beyond the numbers. Prior to building my practice, I served as Director of Investments for a family office overseeing a $100MM real estate portfolio, giving me firsthand experience managing real estate at scale from the inside. Being active across all areas of real estate investment gives me the ability to interpret, anticipate, and stay proactive about not just what is happening in your portfolio, but what is coming. That kind of forward-looking insight is something most bookkeepers simply can't offer. My goal is to deliver best-in-class service as efficiently as possible while painting a clear, actionable picture of your real estate portfolio and business. To do that, I leverage a proprietary application I had built specifically for real estate — one that tracks debt and insurance, enables frictionless client communication, and offers unique value-adds you won't find with any other practitioner. I am also fluent in the full spectrum of third-party real estate accounting platforms, including AppFolio, Buildium, Yardi, QuickBooks, InvestNext, Juniper, multiple short-term rental management systems, and more — so wherever your data lives, I can work with it. I serve satisfied clients across all major asset classes, including hospitality, short-term rentals, multifamily (including large syndications), industrial, retail, office, and flips. Beyond investment properties, I also work with real estate service businesses — brokerage, property management, investor services (portals, capital accounts, and more), tax, and advisory. What truly sets my practice apart is being vertically integrated. I can handle your books in the most tax-efficient way possible (with a focus on optimizing capital assets), provide proactive advisory, maintain investor portals, and have our in-house CPA prepare tax returns and K-1s for you and any investors — all in a timely manner, so you can stay focused on growing your business. I've built my proprietary tools because I've lived the challenges from both the financial and operational sides of real estate. I know where the sticking points are, and I know how to get ahead of them. Above all, I'm here to build long-term relationships and help my clients grow. Let's grow together.
