Additional Information

I am a primarily remote based accounting professional. However, I am also available to work onsite or hybrid as well. I am motivated to assist as a FT, PT, W-2, or 1099 Contractor.

Should your needs be less than 20 hours or less per week no problem! I can negotiate a weekly service fee to conquer all your bookkeeping, accounting, and administrative needs. Employee no show or emergency? I can cover that too. Remote solutions are more affordable however, for onsite and urgent priority an additional fee would apply.

Looking to learn how to transition your office to a remote setting? I can do that for you as an employee or consultant to reduce in-office distractions, timely commutes for your employees, increase productivity, and reduce high overhead expenses.
