About Us

Carissa is a qualified Accountant with 20 years experience in a diverse range of roles, including motel management, not-for-profit organisations and public accounting, Carissa has a genuine passion for working in public practice, where her expertise shines in guiding businesses to financial success.

Her approach is hands-on, focusing on strategies that specifically cater to enhancing profits, bolstering cash flow, and ensuring that each business she partners with is well-positioned to achieve, and often exceed, their financial aspirations. She holds a deep-seated belief that every business possesses its own distinct identity, much like a snowflake's unique pattern. This philosophy drives her to tailor her advice and strategies to the individual needs of each business, ensuring that they are not only nurtured according to their unique characteristics but are also set on a path of continuous growth and success.

Both our team and her clients deeply appreciate Carissa's dependability. She consistently proves to be a pillar of support, ensuring tasks are completed with speed, precision, and ease.
