I Help Accounting Firms Fix Their Document Workflows

If you're spending too much time organizing client documents, chasing missing files, or manually entering data—I can help. I specialize in document automation and have a background building workflow tools for financial institutions.

My Background

I'm making a career transition into accounting consulting, but I'm not starting from scratch.

I've spent years building software for commercial lenders, where I specialized in document processing, OCR (optical character recognition), and automated data categorization—the same challenges accounting firms face during tax season.

After talking with several CPAs about their workflows, I realized the problems are eerily similar: scattered documents, manual data entry, disconnected systems. These are problems I know how to solve.

I'm currently learning the accounting side of the business—understanding your processes, software ecosystem, and specific pain points. But the technology expertise? That's where I can help immediately.

What I Bring to the Table

  • Document Processing & OCR
    Extracting data from PDFs, receipts, and statements automatically
  • Automated Categorization
    Teaching systems to classify and route information correctly
  • Workflow Analysis
    Identifying bottlenecks and designing better processes
  • Financial Services Experience
    I understand compliance, accuracy requirements, and working with sensitive data

Problems I'm Exploring

Based on conversations with accounting professionals, these are the workflow challenges that keep coming up:

Tax Season Document Collection

Clients sending documents via email, text, portal uploads, even paper mail. Organizing everything becomes a full-time job.

Manual Data Entry

Copying information from bank statements, receipts, and invoices into accounting software. Time-consuming and error-prone.

PBC (Provided by Client) Chaos

Audit teams tracking down missing documents, dealing with version control issues, and managing status across dozens of requests.

Disconnected Systems

QuickBooks, tax software, email, and document storage don't talk to each other. Everything requires manual coordination.

How I Work

I'm not selling a packaged solution because I don't think one-size-fits-all works. Here's my approach:

1

Discovery Conversation

We talk about your specific workflows, where you're losing time, and what's frustrating your team. No sales pitch—just understanding your problems.

2

Process Analysis

If it makes sense, I'll spend time observing your workflows firsthand. I need to see the actual problems, not just hear about them.

3

Recommendations

I'll provide specific ideas for improving your workflows—whether that's process changes, automation opportunities, or custom development.

4

Implementation (If Needed)

If you want help implementing solutions, we can discuss that. But there's no obligation—you're free to take my recommendations and run with them.

Let's Talk About Your Workflows

No obligation, no sales pressure. Just a conversation about the problems you're facing and whether I might be able to help.
