If your books are behind, your QBO is a mess, or you're not sure your numbers are actually right — I can help you fix that fast. I'm a QuickBooks Online Certified ProAdvisor, accountant and fractional CFO with 20+ years of experience in accounting, financial operations, and business consulting. I've worked with service-based businesses from start-ups to companies doing $10M+ in revenue, and I specialize in getting financial records cleaned up, organized, and actually useful. A few highlights of my experience: - Full historical cleanups — catching up months or years of backlog - Chart of accounts setup and restructuring - Bank and credit card reconciliations - Integration setup and troubleshooting (Shopify, Amazon, payment processors, and more) - Monthly bookkeeping and ongoing maintenance - Cash flow reporting and financial statement preparation - QBO training for owners and internal teams Where I go beyond bookkeeping: Most bookkeepers hand you clean numbers and stop there. My background in operational consulting and strategic leadership means I can also tell you what those numbers are revealing about how your business is running — and what to do about it. Before launching my practice, I spent years: - Running an accounting and advisory firm serving small and mid-sized businesses - Consulting with hundreds of businesses on process improvement as a Lean Six Sigma Master Black Belt - Leading strategic initiatives as a Director of Strategy and Chief of Staff That combination is rare, and it means that when I clean up your books, you also get a clearer picture of where your cash is going and why. Businesses I have worked with: - Home service companies (HVAC, plumbing, restoration, landscaping) - Agencies and consultancies - Professional services firms - E-Commerce & brick-and-mortar retail - Owner-operated businesses that have outgrown their current financial setup What working with me looks like: Some clients need a one-time cleanup and a fresh start. Others want ongoing monthly support. Either way, I turn around clean, accurate financials quickly and communicate clearly throughout the process. If your books need attention and you want someone who actually understands your business — not just your chart of accounts — reach out and let's talk.

Hi there! I love helping small businesses get peace of mind and higher cash flow with clear business snapshots and accounts receivable management. As a serial entrepreneur I've developed a love and appreciate for business numbers. I think having a clear picture of where your business is, at any point in time and over time, is crucial for growth, development and peace of mind. I also help businesses keep cash flow high with overdue invoice management. When you have a higher accounts receivable turnover you are able to grow faster and have better future planning.
