About
After 10 years working as a florist (and later a flower grower), I decided to go full circle back to one of my first jobs as a bookkeeper and in 2024 completed my AAT bookkeeping qualification, I am also currently studying towards the AAT accountancy qualification (due to complete March 2026).
Throughout my working life I have tried to maintain a balance between creativity and using my analytical thinking skills. I have run several of my own small businesses so I know what is needed to grow a successful business, and particularly so with those in creative and wedding industries.
I am dedicated to helping other business owners reach their full potential and free up their time to focus on what they do best.
I am based just south of Edinburgh, but as a virtual bookkeeper I am able to work with clients all around the UK.
