Bookkeeping from someone who understands small business.

I’m Erika Golde, an experienced bookkeeping and accounting professional. I’ve loved bookkeeping since I was a child, running micro-businesses and tracking every penny. That early interest grew into years of education and hands-on experience and a passion for helping service-based small-business owners build reliable financial systems and understand what their numbers are telling them.

My approach is steady, practical, and collaborative. You don’t need to become an accounting expert. You just need books you can trust and someone you can turn to when you have questions.
