Hi, I'm Jaclyn!
Growing up in a family of entrepreneurs, from masons to mechanics, I have a passion for the skilled trades and business owners like you. I know firsthand the dedication, pride, and hard work that goes into running a business. That’s why I’m on a mission to take bookkeeping and financial management off your plate! My goal is to help you keep your finances in check, seize new opportunities, and build a business that’s as strong as the work you do.

With more than 15 years in finance and having worked with several top companies in Central PA like Hershey Entertainment, Penn State, and Paychex, you can feel confident with me as your financial guide.
Let’s build something great together!
