My bookkeeping 
experience started in our family business, before all the great online applications we have today. It was a bit of the old school “checks and balances” type work. Like many family owned businesses I provided a variety of services from bookkeeping, payroll to financial analysis and forecasting.
After immigrating from South Africa in the late '90's, I worked as the CFO to a mortgage company. During the boom in the housing industry, I obtained my Florida contractor’s license and built homes in Central Florida.
Then there was the real estate crash and everything came to a screeching halt. It was a difficult time since I loved the creative challenge of building but it was also a time of deep personal growth. Fortunately, with my strong financial background I once again worked as a bookkeeper and office manager. I also continued my work as a professional equestrian coach. Mentoring students and riding has kept me balanced and active one of those important life/balance lessons.
Over the years I have focused solely on these two skills: providing bookkeeping services, as well as coaching local equestrian riders.
I’ve always had a love for numbers and the advancement of technology allows me to serve my clients through improved online applications. My equestrian coaching keeps me grounded, and the combination of these two different types of work (left and right brain) creates a work balance that works for me.
Having worked in a family business, my own rapidly growing business, and a large corporation, being self-employed, I have a perspective that I believe benefits my clients. I would consider myself experienced but still in training since I think we can grow in all aspects of our lives if we can stay open to all possibilities.
