Offer assistance and support to SCORE clients across various aspects of business management, encompassing areas such as accounting, budgeting, and financial planning.

With over 25 years of extensive experience spanning retail, distribution, and technology sectors, I offer a unique blend of skills to support aspiring and established business owners navigate the complexities of entrepreneurship. As a trusted strategic advisor, I specialize in guiding leadership teams through the process of selecting, negotiating, and implementing tailored solutions to address their specific needs and ensure an exceptional experience by optimizing the utilization of technologies and streamlining business processes.

I can help clients with all facets of small business management from accounting/finance to marketing. I can also provide guidance in strategic planning and building a business plan.

Assist businesses (startups or established) with creating and implementing effective business processes, business plans and budgets. Create a solid business model for self-sustaining growth or potential merger into larger operation. Focus on B2C and B2B sales businesses, including pick and pack operations.

Having made a lot of good decisions and a few bad ones over a long business career, I want to help folks start and grow successful companies. I hope to guide people towards what will work and away from what may not. My thirty years of running a small business that I started from scratch and eventually sold have given me a lot of experience that I would like to pass on.

I have worked in accounting since 2005 and own and manage a Certified Public Accounting firm serving clients across the United States. I work heavily with small business owners, but have also worked in private accounting for an Inc.

Less than 10% of new businesses survive past the first year. SCORE’s mission is to help you beat the odds by helping you launch a business built to succeed in today's dynamic business environment. 

As a manager/owner of a small business one must wear a number of different hats. Even though the business is small it will require the same attention to finances, marketing, personnel, etc. as a large company. With my experience as a CPA and small business owner I understand these needs and can help SCORE clients address these various areas and assist in setting priorities and instituting best practices from the beginning.
