The Accounting Department

There is no business on the planet that has grown to any size with out good accounting and financial support. A great accountant who specializes in internal operations will guide your business in setting up and operating the infrastructure that your business needs to grow. A growing business needs to know how much cash is needed at an point in time,how much is coming in and when, needs accurate numbers in their accounting software and how to interpret those numbers to spot trouble as well as opportunities. A good internal accountant can do this and more.

Helping business owners achieve their dream of building a solid company

In working with small businesses as an employee , I saw the need for small growing businesses to have high quality trained bookkeeping services. I felt a had gone as far as I could as a regular employee and could be of greater service the small growing business community as a free lancer,

In the ensuing years, I have helped move many businesses to the proverbial next level and learned far more than I ever would as an employee.

I hate to boast but here are few who have the depth and breath of experience and problem solving that i have. Not to mention that in my 20 years of working as an independent , I have formed relationships with related firms in Finance,accounting and taxes. I have vetted these firms thoroughly. There is no problem that cannot be solved.

But more than that I care about you and your success. So if you are facing these challanges give me and my team a call
