Bookkeeping and financial services professional helping small businesses turn financial data into clarity.
What I'm looking for
I’m a finance, insurance, and bookkeeping professional with over 6 years of experience, backed by entrepreneurial expertise in art and design. I’m known for managing complex projects while delivering exceptional customer service, and for building innovative solutions that blend technical, creative, and business acumen.
As the Owner/Bookkeeper at G6 Bookkeeping, I founded a practice focused on helping small businesses maintain accurate financial records and gain greater visibility into their financial performance. I deliver responsive, personalized client service with an emphasis on clear communication, accuracy, and reliability.
Previously, I earned 2016 Rookie Agent of the Year as a Sr. Associate, Product Specialist/Financial Services Professional at New York Life Insurance Co, developing a robust book of business and collaborating with internal wholesalers to drive year-over-year sales growth. I also owned Matt Gallo Designs and Galactic Sabers, where I coordinated client engagements and used data-driven strategies—along with SEO-optimized content—to improve website performance and customer acquisition.
