Hey Future Clients! My name is Avery Beasley, and I’m a Certified Public Accountant (CPA) with over six years of experience helping small and medium-sized businesses stay compliant, reduce stress, and make smarter financial decisions. I provide end-to-end accounting and tax services, meaning you don’t have to juggle multiple professionals to understand your numbers. Accounting & Bookkeeping Services I take ownership of your day-to-day accounting so you can focus on running your business. This includes: Recording, categorizing, reconciling, and adjusting transactions Cleaning up messy or incomplete books from prior years Preparing periodic financial statements (P&L, Balance Sheet, Cash Flow) More importantly, I don’t just deliver reports—I explain what they mean. I provide insights from a managerial perspective so you understand how your business is performing and from a tax planning perspective so there are no surprises at tax time. Tax Preparation & Tax Strategy I’ve prepared 3,000+ tax returns for individuals and business entities and have helped clients: Remain fully compliant while legally minimizing taxes Prepare and file back tax returns for multiple years Amend prior-year returns, recapturing tens of thousands of dollars Understand when amending returns is beneficial—or required Because I handle both accounting and tax, I’m able to identify opportunities others often miss. Why Clients Work With Me CPA-level expertise (not just data entry) Clear communication and practical explanations Proactive guidance—not just compliance A single point of contact for accounting and tax If you need help with accounting, bookkeeping, tax preparation, cleanup work, or tax planning, I’d be happy to help. Feel free to reach out—let’s get your finances back on track.

When you enjoy what you love doing then growing and learning never stops.I have been working as a Bookkeeper for the over 8 years handling wide range of clients from small business owners to large corporations.

Also, help syncing third party account integration like T-Sheets, Expensify, Shopify, Amazon, HubDoc, Xero, Bill.com, Square, Excel, and many others to make data entry life easy. My services are were preferred by CPA's as well because I analyze everything to keep clients books accurately. Doing efficient work is my goal and security is my top priority. Over the years it has been my “specialty” to clean-up after less experienced bookkeepers by getting a company’s books in order and then maintaining their integrity. Integrity of a company’s books is my goal with each project. I am fast and efficient and worth the cost. Tired of paying those fly by "bookkeepers" and having to clean up their mess. I am affordable...less than what you would pay your CPA and I am good at what I do. You won't be disappointed Look forward to work with you and always happy to assist you to take your business to a next level. My extensive experience with new clients and current clients who are just starting up or already in business helping them either set up, clean up or maintain their books will definitely be beneficial for anyone looking to have a clear picture of their business finances
