Why Choose Me?
As a lifelong horsewoman with more than 30 years of experience owning, riding, training, and showing horses, I understand the unique demands horses place on your time, energy, and career. I understand how managing the financial side of an equine business can feel overwhelming when your passion is in the barn, not the books.
Alongside my equine background, I bring 20 years of professional accounting experience in both large corporations and fast‑growing startups. Since earning my Bachelor’s Degree in Accounting from the University of Phoenix in 2009, I’ve:
Led accounting teams and financial audits
Implemented accounting systems and software
Managed payroll for multi‑national corporations
Built and maintained large‑scale budgets and forecasts
Combining these two worlds—horses and finance—I founded The Equine Bookkeeper, LLC, dedicated exclusively to serving the equine industry. My mission is simple: to give horse owners, trainers, and equine businesses accurate bookkeeping services, but more importantly the analysis behind the numbers to make more informed decisions about how to grow your business.
While I’m not a CPA, I specialize in:
System implementations and system conversions
Helping you plan and budget for the future
Making tax season smooth and hassle‑free by having accurate books every month
With me, you’ll spend less time worrying about numbers and more time focusing on what you love—your horses.
