Hello world!

Welcome to my new blog! Fun Fact, in addition to being an accounting nerd, I’m also a computer nerd. I can’t tell you how many times I have built the hello world program in various programming languages. If you don’t know what I’m talking about, then I’ll save you a google search and give you the direct link to Wikipedia. That first small program is a physiological milestone. It gives you that small win that you need before you get into the weeds of the more challenging and sometimes not as fun material. I know that accounting is, for most people, a dull and boring topic, that is why I won’t be covering accounting issues exclusively. That being said, I do feel I have knowledge and insight that can help people. Here is a little bit more about me and why I’m starting this blog.

• I have a passion for helping people with their business. The truth of the matter is that I am an entrepreneur at heart. I am fascinated with others that have taken the plunge as I have and started their own small business. I am fortunate to work with all kinds of companies from the successful business that has been operating for 20 years to the scrappy startup that must stay lean to survive. Both companies have their own sets of problems, and I am honored that I get paid to help solve some of those problems for my clients.
• I am trying to provide a better service to a broader audience. There are only so many hours in the day, and I want to share my insights into issues I see come up over and over. This way, I can serve even those people that I’m not able to meet face to face. (I’m starting to wonder if face to face is a thing of the past.)
• Finally, I feel that producing content requires the next level of mastery. I pride myself on helping my clients understand the issues that I am assisting them with. But by taking some of these complex issues and boiling them down to an understandable blog post will make me better at my job. 

If you are still reading this, then kudos to you. You are my tribe, and my hope is that I can give you some help along your journey. If it is within my ability and you have some requested topics let me know in the comments, and I will do my best to add it to the queue.
