Bridging the Gap Between Operations & Advisory

With 10 years of CPA experience and 8 years in property management, I specialize in bridging the gap between operations, internal accounting teams, and external CPA firms to ensure accurate reporting, proactive tax planning, and smooth year-end processes.

I serve real estate owner-operators, property management companies, and multi-entity portfolios that have outgrown a bookkeeper but don't need — or can't justify — a full-time controller.
