A CPA for over 20 years, I left my career at a Big 4 accounting firm in the DC area to become a dedicated, full-time mom to my young children. Eventually this also freed my time to help some entrepreneurial people in my community who were starting their own companies.

I realized that I love helping small companies launch big ideas. I do this by providing a bookkeeping service that gets their invoices collected, bills paid and bank accounts reconciled. And for those who are growing faster and need more, a part time CFO to help them with forecasting and planning.

I believe in communicating effectively and authentically, and working collaboratively. I believe in working hard, living abundantly, and continuous learning. I care about the people I work with, and I embrace my work as a service opportunity.
