MEET YOUR BOOKKEEPER
Hello, I'm Michaela.
I'm the owner of Matthews Bookkeeping Co, and I genuinely enjoy bringing order to the financial side of a business. There is something incredibly rewarding about taking books that feel confusing or overwhelming and turning them into information a business owner can actually understand and use.
I work primarily with small and growing businesses, providing the organization, consistency, and financial visibility owners need without adding another complicated process to their plate.
My approach goes beyond simply categorizing transactions. I want my clients to understand their numbers, feel comfortable asking questions, and know that their books are being handled carefully throughout the year.
Clear Books
Financial records that are organized, reconciled, and ready when you or your tax professional need them.
Confident Decisions
Reporting that helps you understand what the numbers are actually telling you about your business.
Less Stress
A dependable bookkeeping resource so you are not left trying to figure everything out on your own.
WHY I DO THIS
Small Business Owners Deserve to Understand Their Numbers
Too often, bookkeeping becomes something business owners only think about when tax season arrives or when something has already gone wrong. I believe it should be the opposite.
Accurate books should help you see where your money is going, understand whether your business is profitable, prepare for upcoming obligations, and make decisions with better information.

LOCAL ROOTS
Supporting the Small Businesses Around Me
Matthews Bookkeeping Co is built around working with small business owners and developing genuine professional relationships, not treating clients like account numbers.
That same philosophy is why I am building relationships with other trusted local professionals. When a client needs something outside my area of expertise, I want to be able to point them toward someone I would feel comfortable recommending.
