A Few Words
About Me
From Curiosity to Craft: Helping Small Businesses Thrive, One Book at a Time
Hi, I’m the founder of ZenOrisca, and I help small business owners feel calm and confident about their finances through thoughtful, accurate bookkeeping.
It wasn’t always clear that this is what I’d be doing. In fact, math wasn’t my favorite subject growing up—it was just something I got through. But years later, I found myself in a full-time math course, and to my surprise, I fell in love with it. The logic, the order, the way everything clicked into place—it felt like solving puzzles, and I couldn’t get enough.
That led me to a long and rewarding career as a Business Analyst in the IT field, where I worked closely with data, processes, and people—helping teams make smart decisions and run more efficiently. I also come from a family of teachers, and that love of clear communication and helping others make sense of things has always been a big part of who I am.
But something inside me always wanted more—more freedom, more purpose, more connection. I wanted to build something of my own. I wanted more flexibility, more meaning, and a work life that reflected what I truly valued. I started exploring, and that’s when I discovered bookkeeping—and everything clicked again.
Bookkeeping brought together all the best parts of what I love: numbers, structure, solving problems, and helping people in a practical, meaningful way. And honestly? It’s therapeutic. There’s something deeply satisfying about bringing order to a messy set of books and seeing the relief on a client’s face when everything finally makes sense.
So, I trained, got certified by Intuit and the Digital Bookkeepers Association, and started ZenOrisca—a business built on trust, calm, and care. I'm also a Intuit QBO Proadvisor.
My Commitment to You
Whether you’re a brand-new startup or a growing small business, I’m committed to helping you understand your numbers, stay organized, and feel confident about your finances. I don’t just provide bookkeeping—I offer peace of mind. You’ll never feel rushed, judged, or left in the dark. I take time to explain, answer questions, and tailor my services to your unique needs.
What Makes Me Different
What sets me apart is my blend of technical skill and a personal touch. With a background in IT and business analysis, I bring structure and strategy to your books. At the same time, I come from a family of educators—so teaching, simplifying, and empowering people is second nature. You’re not just hiring a bookkeeper—you’re gaining a partner who cares about your success.
At ZenOrisca, I believe that bookkeeping doesn’t have to be overwhelming or impersonal. I offer more than just reports and reconciliations. I offer a partnership—one where your numbers tell a clear story, and you feel supported, understood, and free to focus on what you do best.
Whether you’re just getting started, or ready to hand off the financial details to someone who truly enjoys them, I’m here to help. And I mean that—because I really do love this work.
When I’m not deep in spreadsheets or helping clients, you’ll probably find me doing puzzles, reading a great book, or teaching math to someone who swears they’re “not a numbers person.” (Spoiler: they usually are.)
Thanks for stopping by—and if you’re ready to breathe a little easier about your books, I’d love to connect.
