Beyond the numbers, there's so much more to me

I currently reside in the vibrant city of Sacramento, where I've built my career and my life. I'm a wife of 10 years, proud parent to two adorable dogs, a cat, and recently, a beautiful baby girl. Balancing the demands of motherhood while running my own charcuterie business, Grazing Gouda, keeps me on my toes and reminds me of the importance of seizing every moment.

My passion for helping others extends beyond the realm of finance. Through Grazing Gouda, I teach others the art of creating stunning charcuterie boards and cater events such as weddings and showers. It's a creative outlet that brings me immense joy and fulfillment.

where I encountered an exceptional accounting teacher who inspired me to change my major. From that moment on, I found myself drawn to the intricacies of numbers, particularly in budgeting and financial analysis.

This passion for numbers led me to envision scenarios like calculating how many extra trips to Starbucks I could afford with a bonus $50 each week. I believe that behind every financial statement lies a narrative waiting to be uncovered, and I am passionate about unraveling those stories for my clients.

My mission is to empower entrepreneurs to understand and embrace their numbers, freeing them to focus on what they do best – running their businesses and maximizing their profits. By providing clarity and insight into their finances, I aim to remove the stigma associated with bookkeeping and transform it into a tool for informed decision-making and growth
