CPA firm owner with more client books than your team has time to handle? I help CPA firms, accounting firms, and bookkeeping practices manage client books in QuickBooks Online and Xero, from cleanup and catch-up work to reconciliations, month-end close, and review-ready financials. I’m a Top Rated Plus Bookkeeper, 2,000+ Upwork hours, and 5+ years of bookkeeping experience. I’m also a QuickBooks Online Certified ProAdvisor and Xero Certified ProAdvisor. I understand how CPA firms work: you don’t need someone constantly asking what to do next. You need a bookkeeper who can follow your existing processes and Chart of Accounts, investigate discrepancies, document questions clearly, meet deadlines, and deliver clean books for your review. ** How I Can Support Your Firm -- QuickBooks Online & Xero Bookkeeping -- Monthly Bookkeeping & Month-End Close -- Catch-Up & Cleanup Bookkeeping -- Bank & Credit Card Reconciliations -- Balance Sheet Reconciliations -- Accounts Payable & Accounts Receivable -- Journal Entries & Adjusting Entries -- Payroll Entries & Reconciliations -- Loan & Fixed Asset Tracking -- Payment Processor Reconciliations -- Transaction Review & Reclassification -- 1099 Preparation Support -- P&L, Balance Sheet & Cash Flow Reporting -- Tax-Ready Books & Supporting Schedules ** Cleanup & Problem Solving When books don’t tie, I don’t simply force a reconciliation. I investigate: • Incorrect opening balances • Missing or duplicate transactions • Uncategorized transactions • Incorrect income/expense classifications • Bank-feed discrepancies • PayPal, Stripe and clearing-account differences • Historical reconciliation issues • Balance Sheet accounts that don’t tie to supporting records The goal is to identify why something is wrong, correct it properly, and leave a clear audit trail for the CPA/reviewer. ** Experience Working With Accounting Firms I’m comfortable working behind the scenes as an extension of a CPA, tax, or bookkeeping firm, including managing multiple client files simultaneously. I can take assigned books from transaction-level bookkeeping through reconciliation and month-end review, then provide clear notes on anything requiring CPA or client input. I’m equally comfortable adopting your existing Chart of Accounts, close checklist, naming conventions, documentation standards, and workflows rather than rebuilding a system that already works. ** Software & Platforms QuickBooks Online | Xero | QuickBooks Desktop | Excel | Zoho Books Additional experience with: Gusto | PayPal | Stripe | Shopify | Amazon | Buildium | AppFolio | Wave | FreshBooks Whether you have one difficult cleanup file or a portfolio of monthly bookkeeping clients, I can step into your existing workflow and help keep the books clean, reconciled, current, and ready for review.
