Great Partner
May 28, 2025 — Englewood Helping Hands Treasurer
“I have been working with Cari for 2 1/2 years and cannot be happier with her work. Initially, she transferred all of our records from a desktop version to a cloud-based version of QuickBooks. She performs all of our non-profit’s bookkeeping work at a reasonable monthly rate. Her work is always accurate and provided to me monthly for review on a timely basis. She is always available for questions or consultations when required. In addition, each year she interfaces with our accountant on the preparation of our 990 form for annual submission to the IRS. Cari is also a Certified QuickBooks ProAdvisor which has proved invaluable in solving some issues we encountered in the past regarding QuickBooks.”

“Cari has an amazing team in place to help small businesses consolidate and create efficiencies in their accounting and bookkeeping systems.

This was truly TRANSFORMATIVE for our business! They are well versed in how technology can change systems and processes.
