About Kelly
My passion lies in helping creative entrepreneurs who are growing their businesses while having fun doing what they love. I’m a left brain thinker with a strong appreciation for the right brain population. I thrive on the energy and passion of Creatives and have found that great things can happen when left and right merge. Your creativity combined with my mind for numbers and patterns is like chocolate and peanut butter!
My background in accounting and business management comes in handy when I am analyzing your business; My sense of humor and light-hearted attitude comes in handy when I am explaining it all to you! I like to ask targeted questions and raise issues that you and your creative team might overlook while doing “the fun part” of your business. I love playing devil’s advocate and I’ll use that approach to help you make informed, well-rounded decisions. I’ll listen to your point of view, experiences, company culture, and goals and keep those top of mind as I provide guidance. I’ll actively poke holes in your theories, when necessary. You creative types might intimidate run-of-the-mill accountants, but not me!
In addition to discussing issues in your business, I’ll help you understand the impact of those decisions. Reviewing your financials may seem as fun to you as visiting the dentist, so I’ll do my best to make it interesting and engaging. You’re probably a visual thinker, so I’ll translate your business data into easy-to-understand visuals. Instead of looking at those boring P&L’s, we’ll have lively conversation while looking at helpful “snapshots” of your business.
