About BooksWise LLC
Hi, I'm Jess
— and I know how overwhelming it can feel to run a business without clarity around your numbers. I was once the confused business owner trying to manage everything without truly understanding my finances, and learning bookkeeping became the solution.
I began by handling bookkeeping for our HVAC business and as a real estate investor, gaining real-world experience across both service-based and asset-driven businesses.
Today, I help other for-profit business owners make sense of their books through accurate bookkeeping, clean systems, and plain-English explanations — so they don't feel lost or judged, just supported.

Frequently Asked Questions
An accountant typically focuses on tax preparation and high-level financial reporting and often
charges higher fees. A bookkeeper focuses on the day-to-day accuracy of your financial records
and is usually more available for questions, updates, and ongoing support. BooksWise works
alongside your accountant by keeping your books clean, accurate, and tax-ready throughout
the year.
I’ve been in your position — as a business owner who didn’t understand their books and felt
overwhelmed by the numbers. A good bookkeeper is detail-oriented, organized, consistent, and
deeply familiar with their software. I specialize in QuickBooks Online and combine strong
bookkeeping systems with a solid foundation in accounting knowledge and principles to ensure
your books are accurate and reliable.
Cleanup work typically starts after the most recent year your business tax return was filed.
During your diagnostic review, we’ll confirm exactly how far back cleanup is appropriate for
your situation.
Yes. You’re never locked in. If you decide to take over your bookkeeping, I’ll complete the books
through the end of the current month so everything is clean, accurate, and up to date before
the transition.
Through my other business, LifeSupport.biz, I teach bookkeeping basics for business owners
focused on understanding your numbers — including how bookkeeping works, how to read key
financial reports, and what to expect at tax time. The goal is financial clarity, not teaching
bookkeeping in depth.
I am certified exclusively in QuickBooks Online. If you’re currently using another system, I may
be able to convert your books to QuickBooks Online as part of a cleanup or setup process.
