Bookkeeper & Accountant | QuickBooks ProAdvisor

Most small business owners don't need another bookkeeper. They need someone who understands their numbers, catches what's wrong before it becomes a problem, and helps them make better decisions with their finances. That's what I do. I'm a QuickBooks Certified ProAdvisor and BBA Summa Cum Laude graduate with minors in Accounting and Project Management from the University of Maine at Presque Isle, with 7+ years of experience working directly with small business owners across the US as their go-to accounting and operations partner. My work goes beyond keeping books clean. I step into businesses as a Fractional Controller, reviewing financial operations, identifying errors and inefficiencies, overseeing accounting workflows, and giving ownership the financial visibility they need to grow with confidence. I've done this across 10+ industries including real estate, construction, logistics, healthcare, law firms, e-commerce, and manufacturing. What I typically help with: - Full-cycle accounting oversight and monthly close. - Bank and credit card reconciliations. - Financial reporting and analysis for decision-making. - QuickBooks setup, cleanup, and ongoing maintenance. - Accounts payable and receivable management. - Collections and cash flow management. - E-commerce accounting including Shopify and Amazon. - Business consulting: operations, cost optimization, and growth strategy. - Coordination with CPAs and tax preparers. I work with a small number of clients on an ongoing retainer basis, which means when you work with me, you get my full attention and a real understanding of your business, not a one-size-fits-all service. If you need someone who can own your accounting, keep everything clean and accurate, and actually help you understand what your numbers mean for your business, let's talk. Why clients choose me: - QuickBooks Certified ProAdvisor - 100% Job Success | Top Rated on Upwork - BBA Summa Cum Laude, minors in Accounting and Project Management, University of Maine at Presque Isle - 7+ years across 10+ industries - GAAP standards - Bilingual: English and Spanish - Clear communication, fast turnaround, no micromanagement needed
