About Me

A woman with shoulder-length brown hair, smiling, wearing a purple sleeveless top and a colorful beaded necklace, against a gray background.

My path to becoming a CPA wasn’t a straight line — it was a steady climb built on two decades of hands‑on experience, real‑world problem‑solving, and the kind of perspective you only gain by running a business yourself.

I entered the accounting world over 20 years ago, long before I earned her CPA license, learning the industry from the inside out. I worked with small business owners, entrepreneurs, service providers, and growing companies who were brilliant at what they did but overwhelmed by the financial side of running a business. I quickly became the person they turned to when they needed clarity, structure, and someone who could make sense of the numbers without judgment or jargon…
