About Kristine
A CPA Who Actually Explains Things
I started my practice because I believe every business owner and individual deserves straightforward, honest accounting — not confusing jargon or a bill for every five-minute question.
Background
My Story
I've been working in accounting and tax for over a two decades, serving clients ranging from solo freelancers to multi-location & international small businesses. I earned my CPA license because I wanted to offer clients something more than basic bookkeeping — I wanted to be a trusted advisor who helps them make smarter financial decisions year-round.
Based in Northwest Indiana, I work with clients locally and remotely across the country. Whether you're a first-time filer, a growing LLC, or a business owner who's been burned by bad advice before, I'm here to make the numbers make sense.
I believe in building long-term relationships with my clients — not just showing up at tax time.
