Hi, I’m Jillian!

I help business owners stop avoiding their finances and start actually understanding them.

Not in a "here's your monthly report, good luck" kind of way. In a "let me actually explain what this means for YOUR business" kind of way.

Because there's a big difference between having a bookkeeper and having someone who actually gives a damn about what happens to your business.

Here's how I got here...

A couple of years ago, a friend was venting about her bookkeeper. I said — out loud, to her face — "I can do that better."

She said "okay, hired."

That was 2.5 years ago. She's still my client today.

I'd spent almost 10 years in corporate finance by that point — FP&A, analytics, financial reporting — watching companies generate endless reports that nobody ever looked at or understood. Work that existed to make shareholders richer, not to actually help anyone.

I was tired of it.

I wanted to do work that made a real difference for real people. So I stopped waiting for the perfect moment and started.

What I actually do

I'm a bookkeeper AND a data translator.

Clean books are the foundation. But what I really do is take your numbers and tell you what they mean — for your goals, your decisions, your business.

Most of my clients are creative, driven women who are GREAT at what they do. The books just aren't their thing. (Not a character flaw. Just not what you built your business to do.)

I bring order to the chaos. No judgment, no jargon, no disappearing after I send your reports.

A little more about me

When I'm not in the books, I'm playing roller derby (yes, really) and also doing the accounting for the nonprofit that runs it, because apparently I can't turn it off.

At home I have a retired racing greyhound and an English Bulldog who take my work-life balance very seriously. (They're both asleep on the couch right now, probably.)

Credentials, if you're into that kind of thing

  • Bachelor's in Finance + two MBAs

  • Nearly 10 years in finance and analytics

  • Xero Certified

  • Lean Six Sigma Green Belt

If you've been putting off getting your books in order because it feels like too much of a mess...

That's exactly what this is for.

There's no situation too chaotic, no "I've been ignoring it for two years" too embarrassing.

We start where you are. That's it.
