I began my journey in Accounts Payable as an office assistant. When I unexpectedly found myself without a job, I took matters into my own hands and started my own bookkeeping business from home. Bookkeeping has always been a natural skill for me. In the past 8 years, I’ve discovered a deep passion for teaching and guiding others, particularly when I witness those gratifying “ah ha!” moments. I truly cherish nurturing the confidence of fellow bookkeepers and empowering them to pursue their own dreams. Witnessing others embrace their potential and take on greater challenges is so satisfying, especially knowing that they have exceptional support and resources available through Pachira.

As an experienced bookkeeper and business owner, I’m excited to coach bookkeepers on their entrepreneurial journey. My goal is to boost your confidence and help you navigate the complexities of running your own bookkeeping business. With my expertise in bookkeeping and tax preparation, I understand how the books connect with the tax return process. I simplify complicated topics and break them down into manageable pieces, ensuring your effortless understanding. Through personalized guidance and mentorship, I’ll empower you with the knowledge and skills to excel in your bookkeeping business.

Having grown up around family-owned businesses, I was exposed to QBO and enjoyed helping with the books.Throughout a two-decade tenure in the banking industry, I discovered great satisfaction in guiding and supporting my colleagues through various tasks. Whether it involved introducing new processes, facilitating the onboarding of new team members, or resolving unfamiliar challenges, I derived immense joy from empowering others and nurturing their professional development. In 2021, I made the bold decision to venture into starting my own bookkeeping business, and since then, I have never turned back. Coaching fellow bookkeepers perfectly aligns with my sincere passion for helping others.The most rewarding part of coaching is knowing that I’ve positively impacted someone’s work and made it easier for them. It’s a special moment when I explain a concept, and I can sense their understanding and newfound clarity. Those moments are amazing!

I strive to present myself in a friendly manner, aiming to be a relatable and approachable figure for my clients. My intention is for clients to feel comfortable and at ease, as if they are talking to a trusted friend. There is no judgment or room for feeling embarrassed about asking questions, no matter how basic they may seem. I want to create an environment where clients feel accepted and understood, without any worries of being perceived as unintelligent for struggling with a simple task. My goal is to alleviate coaching clients’ anxieties and fears by assuring them that not knowing something is completely normal and that we all have to start somewhere. It’s important to remember that nobody knows everything, and we are all in a constant state of learning and growth. Sometimes, a fresh perspective can help uncover solutions that may have been overlooked when one has been immersed in a problem for too long.
