# My Journey to Serve Restaurant Owners Even in high school, I knew my path was meant to follow the organized precision of numbers and financial management. What began as a natural affinity for accounting has evolved into a dedicated career serving the unique financial needs of restaurant owners. ## Finding My Purpose After years of honing my skills in various bookkeeping and accounting roles, I took the leap in February 2020 to establish my own practice. The timing presented unprecedented challenges, but also rare opportunities to help business owners navigate financial complexities during uncertain times. ## Growing Through Service My experience spans across helping diverse businesses secure essential funding through Lines of Credit and SBA loans, implementing efficient payroll systems, providing clarity through comprehensive financial reporting, and optimizing cost of goods percentages – all critical elements that directly impact a restaurant's bottom line. ## Restaurant Industry Focus Through working with many different types of businesses, I discovered my true passion lies in serving restaurant owners. I understand the distinctive challenges of food service operations, from seasonal fluctuations to inventory management, and have tailored my financial services specifically to address these needs. Today, I dedicate my expertise to helping restaurant owners build financially sound businesses where they can focus on creating exceptional dining experiences while I manage the numbers behind their success.
