20 years building financial systems. Now doing it for you.

I've spent 20 years in the accounting industry — not just keeping books, but running full financial operations for multiple companies, doing the kind of CFO-level work most business owners never get access to unless they're big enough to hire one in-house.

In 2024, I took that experience and built 1610 Consulting, because I kept seeing the same gap everywhere I looked. Business owners with clean enough books, but no real financial clarity. They didn't know what they could safely pay themselves. They dreaded tax season instead of planning for it months ahead.

Great bookkeeping is the foundation everything else stands on, and bad bookkeeping is genuinely expensive. It costs business owners in missed deductions, blind spots, and decisions made on numbers that were wrong from the start. But a foundation isn't the whole house. A lot of businesses have technically accurate books and still have zero real clarity about what they can pay themselves or what's coming for taxes. That gap is what 1610 builds on top of great bookkeeping, not instead of it.

That's exactly what 1610 builds: the systems that give owners real-time clarity — what's coming in, what's going out, and what's actually safe to move. Numbers a business owner can lead with, not just look back on.

I believe an owner shouldn't have to steward their business's resources in the dark.
