We’re the break your brain has always needed

1428 Financial is on a mission to help you focus on what fuels the fire in your soul. And if we’re honest, bookkeeping is the lowest on the totem pole for most online service providers. We know that managing finances can be like forgetting to take your headphones to the gym, so we wanna save you the big whining eye roll and take care of your money for you.

We redefine full-service bookkeeping. We teach you about your finances, not just crunch numbers. There are few things worse than doing everything you know to do with your money and still second-guessing yourself. Ew, David. Although we’ll handle everything to free up your brain and your time, we’ll educate you so well that you feel like you don’t need us anymore (but our clients love the freedom and support, so they keep us anyway!)

Ideally, you’ll be able to trick your friends into thinking you suddenly got a finance degree and you’ll never worry about making the right moves again.

The 1428 Method

Founder & Virtual CFO

I’m the sometimes blunt, mostly crunchy, slightly particular CEO & Founder of 1428 Financial with over 11 years in accounting. But don't worry– I'm not here to bore you with spreadsheets and numbers (well, too much.) It’s no secret bookkeeping is a dull headache reminder that you have a business to run…when you'd rather be sipping a marg on the beach. Why is it such a headache?! Because not many online service providers have backgrounds in finance or much knowledge of accounting in general.

That’s where I come in. In my very first job as an office administrator, I somehow ended up doing the bookkeeping. Then I started college as a math major and became an office manager who also– yep, you guessed it– did their bookkeeping. I wasn’t looking to do accounting or bookkeeping but it kept falling in my lap. I started to think “Okay, God. Clearly I have a gift you want me to use.” Then I started an accounting job while finishing college, eventually earning the title of Staff Accountant with my Bachelor’s Degree in Business.

After seeing how many people I helped in those years, I knew I had to form my own business to help more people feel comfortable with their money decisions. It’s funny that, while trying to form my path as a math teacher, God kept calling me back to managing numbers. To bookkeeping. To help people feel calm when looking at their accounts. I realized how fulfilling it was to finally give in and commit to the industry by forming 1428 Financial.

My job has allowed me to see complete 180s in people who walk through my virtual doors. From stressed to relieved. From worried to confident. From annoyed to relaxed. I’ve seen that it’s more than “just a job” because I’m helping people feel better in life as a whole. So while you can juggle all the essential tasks of your business, the catch is, you might find yourself with zero time for yourself or your circle by the end of the week. Striking a healthy balance is key to avoiding burnout and feeling as good as finding money in your pocket. It’s why our virtual bookkeepers exist: so you can give up the pesky, little things to focus on the meaningful, important things.

OFF THE BOOKS

In the words of Fergie– I be up in the gym, just workin' on my fitness (...if I just aged myself, no I didn’t)

Virtual Bookkeeper

I have a love for numbers and a knack for untangling financial puzzles, so naturally I became a bookkeeper. After getting my bachelor’s and master’s degrees, I've spent the last 3 years helping all sorts of businesses get their books in order. My approach? I dig deep into the details. If something doesn't add up, I work until I find the answer. I enjoy transforming financial confusion into clarity, helping our clients see the full picture of their business health. To me, bookkeeping isn't just about balancing the books – it's about building a strong financial foundation for your business to thrive.
