Professional Bio
I’m a graduate of Brown University with a dual concentration in Economics and Political Science. I’m also a graduate of Intuit’s Client Advisory Services Foundations Program and hold certifications as a Bookkeeper and as a QuickBooks Online ProAdvisor. I have extensive full-charge bookkeeping, staff accounting, financial accounting, and managerial accounting experience. I've established, managed, and developed double-entry, cash-basis, modified cash-basis, and accrual-basis accounting systems on behalf of multi-sector, micro, small, mid, and large-cap businesses. I've serviced sole proprietorships, partnerships, LLCs, s-corps, c-corps, professional service corporations, and high impact non profits. I have a strong affinity for the payment resolution space and enjoy leveraging the applied data analytics skills that I've developed in accountancy to find actionable insights, solve real-world business challenges, and drive better business decisions.
