My bookkeeping story started at 19, with green ledger paper and my family's businesses.
That hands-on beginning grew into decades of practical work in bookkeeping, accounting, payroll, and tax preparation. I learned the fundamentals before accounting software became part of everyday business—and I still bring that attention to detail to modern tools like QuickBooks.
I'm also a mother, a grandmother, and a believer in helping one another grow. I created Open Door Bookkeeping to offer knowledgeable guidance, clear answers, and the kind of personal connection that helps business owners feel confident.
Whether you're launching a business, learning your accounting software, catching up on your records, or looking for someone to handle your books year after year, I'll take time to understand what you need. My goal is to help you build good systems—not to sell you services you don't need.
