What we do
Hands-on accounting and advisory for small and mid-size businesses that have outgrown the shoebox, and want someone who reads the numbers closely.
Month-end close
A consistent close each month: accruals, adjusting entries, and clean financial statements delivered on a schedule you can plan around.
Reconciliations
Bank, credit card, loan, and balance sheet accounts reconciled and documented, so errors surface in weeks rather than at year-end.
Financial statement review
A CPA reviews your income statement, balance sheet, and cash flow for errors, misclassifications, and anything that looks off.
Cash flow advisory
Where cash comes from, where it goes, and what to do before a shortfall: forecasts, collections, and timing of payments.
Business advisory
A written list of what to fix first: process gaps, reporting gaps, and cost drivers, ranked by impact.

Plain language
You get reports you can read and a clear answer to “so what should I do?” without accounting jargon.
