Helping not-for-profits understand their numbers.

Why Not-for-Profit Organizations?
Not-for-profit organizations do some of the most important work in our communities. They support individuals and families, create opportunities, and strengthen the places we live. Being able to contribute to that work — even from the financial side — is something I find very meaningful.
​
Not-for-profits also face unique financial and reporting challenges. Boards, funders, donors, and the public all want clear and reliable information about how resources are used. Good financial systems and transparent reporting help build trust and support better decision-making.
​
As a Chartered Professional Accountant, I help not-for-profit organizations put strong financial practices in place and produce clear, useful reports. My goal is to make the financial side of your organization easier to manage, so you can focus on your mission.
ABOUT ME
I’m a CPA (Chartered Accountant) who works exclusively with not-for-profit organizations. I love helping organizations understand their numbers so they can focus on the work that really matters.
I hold a Certificate in Not-for-Profit Accounting from CPA Canada and a Bachelor of Commerce from Dalhousie University. I earned my Chartered Professional Accountant (CPA) designation in Ontario, qualifying as a Chartered Accountant (CA).
​
Not-for-profits are more than just clients to me — they’re a big part of my life. I’m an active volunteer and have served as Treasurer for Saint Vincent’s Nursing Home and Provincial Treasurer for Girl Guides of Canada in Nova Scotia. I’ve also been Treasurer of the Parent Teacher Partnership at Basinview Drive Community School, helping raise funds for books, technology, and cultural programs. Currently, I serve as Recruitment Chair for the Sackville Waves Aquatic Team.
​
I know that financial reports and accounting systems can sometimes feel overwhelming. My goal is to make things clear, practical, and useful — not complicated. I enjoy working with boards and staff to answer questions, solve problems, and make sure you always understand where your organization stands.
