I love bookkeeping! No, really. I get all excited about it. My boss at my first accounting job always said "We're a special kind of nerd!" when we'd high five over zeros. Bookkeeping satisfies my OCD so I don't have to organize my sock drawer by color...Anyway, I think bookkeeping is fascinating. It's the hub that all the transactional and operational data gets filtered through on its way to becoming information for decision making. It's arguably the most critical aspect of any business. Cool, right? If you want to know what's really going on in your company, ask your bookkeepers. They talk to everyone. They keep track of everything.As an accounting and business process consultant, I analyze, evaluate, and redesign the bookkeeping hub to streamline communications and data transfer throughout the company. Efficient and effective business processes are a critical part of managing every company's growth and success. Documented processes significantly reduce your risk of knowledge loss. They make it possible to address changes and growth, both internal and external, from a point of stability and efficiency. I always work with sustainability in mind. I’m driven by a desire for simplicity, efficiency, quality and endurance. I craft solutions that benefit everyone involved, incorporating their ideas and input. I don't just “think outside the box,” I think about the relationships and interactions between multiple boxes and how to build them into stable, resilient systems.
