My career began in corporate accounting roles across diverse industries, including automotive retail and manufacturing, before transitioning to public accounting in 1999. As a licensed CPA since 2003, I combine technical expertise with hands-on business ownership experience to address both granular details and strategic growth opportunities. My approach prioritizes building trust through transparency, reliability, and a deep understanding of the unique challenges faced by entrepreneurs.I hold a Bachelor of Science in Business Administration and an MBA, which inform my holistic consulting style. Beyond professional work, I actively contribute to the community through leadership roles in local organizations like the Rotary Club of Prescott Valley and Big Brothers Big Sisters. My goal is to simplify complex financial processes, allowing clients to focus on their core operations while ensuring compliance, efficiency, and long-term success.
