Passionate CPA Professional South Florida Adviser.

Technology enthusiast

Technology expands possibilities. In other words, greater efficiency increases productivity. As a result, professional services are affordable. Consequently, innovation has lowered professional fees.

Friendly professional

Most of all, I am a friendly, jovial professional. I care to know about client issues, first and foremost. Above all, I’m a friendly CPA professional and central South Florida tax adviser who provides affordable, friendly tax return filing.

Tax preparation is changing. Because tax preparation is changing, CPA tax advisers need to think outside the box. Above all, a CPA should be a client’s trusted adviser.

Forensic Accounting

I’ve successfully helped businesses detect, recover and prevent fraud. Above all, I have the expertise to see an engagement to its completion, with both the experience and the knowledge.

The last thing a successful business owner wants!

Business owners don’t typically plan to hire forensic accountants. However, depending on your current CPA to recover theft, fraud and embezzlement impedes recovery. Furthermore, the fraud may have been attributable to the CPA’s own negligence. In other words, it’s costly not to hire an expert. In conclusion, it pays to hire a Certified Fraud Examiner.

Prevent and deter theft, embezzlement & fraud

The best way to defend against fraud is to have internal controls, preventing the fraud from happening in the first place. As a forensic accounting expert, I am an internal control expert.

Small Business Accounting

Accounting & Bookkeeping Help

Many small businesses need advice. Lucky for me, I am an expert with small businesses accounting, including bookkeeping, tax planning, payroll processing, and more.
Sometimes, the more robust software is, the less its functionality is utilized. As a consequence, many businesses overlook QuickBooks’ robust features. Primarily, the program’s integration with Excel is overlooked.
Most importantly, the integration of third party apps is one of the biggest benefits of QBO. These apps turn QuickBooks Online into a powerhouse for most businesses. For instance, the QBO mobile app can be used to take pictures of receipts, and other apps can help with time management, pay vendors and invoice customers.

Another notable feature is the project management module, which can help construction and design firms get a leg up on the competition. After all, being organized boosts productivity.
Financial reporting is vital to the success of a business. Therefore I recommend businesses use the QuickBooks desktop version, and run QB desktop in the cloud. The cloud gives you the same advantages as QuickBooks Online without giving up robust reporting. It’s also easier to transition from QuickBooks Desktop to an Enterprise Resource Program (ERP).
