Our Beginning

From the beginning, my passion to help small businesses make more money has been the driving force of all my decisions.

That is what drew me to accounting initially, joining MNP’s Private Enterprise team and what intrigued me about Willy’s Trucking Service when I first started. Each role provided the same opportunity: How can we make these companies better / stronger / more profitable?

Now as the founder of Authentic CFO Solutions, my goal is to help as many small businesses reach their financial goals as possible.

Why Hire a Fractional CFO or Virtual CFO?

Many growing businesses reach a point where:

  • Financial statements arrive too late

  • Cash flow surprises create stress

  • Margins slowly erode

  • Banks ask tougher questions

  • The owner becomes the default CFO

A fractional CFO (also called a part-time CFO or virtual CFO) provides senior-level financial leadership without a full-time hire.

Authentic CFO Solutions delivers CFO advisory services that bridge the gap between accounting and strategy.
