If your books are behind, messy, or hard for your accountant to make sense of, I can fix that, and then keep them clean every month going forward. I'm a Canadian full-cycle bookkeeper with over 20 years of experience. Most clients come to me one of two ways: their books have fallen behind and year-end is approaching, or they're tired of bookkeeping that creates more questions than answers every month. I solve both, usually starting with a cleanup and moving into ongoing monthly bookkeeping once your books are current. How I typically work with clients Phase 1, Cleanup: I review and correct categorization, reconcile every account month by month, fix the chart of accounts, and hand off financials that are ready for tax filing or professional review with no follow-up questions attached. Phase 2, Monthly Bookkeeping: Once your books are current, I keep them that way. Categorization, reconciliations, AR and AP upkeep, and month-end reports (P&L, balance sheet, cash position), delivered on a consistent schedule so you and your accountant are never scrambling. What I help with - Cleanup and catch-up bookkeeping, months or years behind - Full-cycle monthly bookkeeping (AP, AR, general ledger) - Bank and credit card reconciliations - GST/HST/PST tracking and filing across provinces - Month-end and year-end prep, packaged for your accountant - Financial statement preparation (P&L, balance sheet) Why clients keep me on I focus on the structure of the general ledger, not just transaction categorization. When a file leaves my hands, it's fully reconciled, properly categorized, supported by documentation, and ready for tax prep. My goal is no surprises and no unnecessary back-and-forth at year-end. My experience includes audited nonprofit environments in Winnipeg (Main Street Project, Ka Ni Kanichihk, Macdonald Youth Services), where documentation and audit trail standards were strict, that discipline carries into every file I touch. Software QuickBooks Online, Xero, Sage 50, and advanced Excel (reconciliation, pivot tables, VLOOKUP, macros). If your books need a cleanup, or you want monthly bookkeeping that finally feels reliable, I'm happy to take a look and talk through the best way forward.

I have a Bachelor degree in accounting. Like all junior accountants, I started my work as a bookkeeper and promoted rapidly toward a professional tax accountant and financial manager after 2 years. I have now 7 years of experience in financial area and had the honor of working with many companies in my home country and also worldwide in different areas of industry such as Financial Services, Health Products, Currency Exchange Institutions, Wholesalers, Retail Sellers, etc. I do enjoy all activities in financial area. One of my main pleasures in life is choosing a career that perfectly suits my personality as a careful, interested in challenge, and passionate for analysis person. Of my favorite tasks in accounting are reconciliations and financial reports which I attend as a joy more than job. I have experience in working on payroll, payable accounts, chasing customers for payments, bank reconciliations, and literally all activities related to an accountant and a financial manager. I am a certified advanced ProAdvisor for Quick Books Online.
