Tired of your income being on paper & not in the bank?

Our Vision

our vision for bookkeeping services

At Sawtooth Bookkeeping & Consulting, we believe that hard working business owners deserve the time and clarity to focus on what truly matters-whether it's growing their business, spending time with family, or simply finding peace of mind.

We understand the challenges of running a small business because we've seen how much effort it takes to keep everything moving. Our mission is to empower business owners by simplifying their finances, solving cash flow headaches, and bringing order to the chaos of compliance.

We're not just here to clean up books-we're here to create a foundation for confident decisions, consistent paychecks, and sustainable growth. Your success is our success, and we're committed to helping you thrive.

Who We Are

I was born and raised in Kentucky but relocated to Idaho four years ago, and I’ve completely fallen in love with this beautiful state. It’s home now, and I never want to leave! I’m married to my business partner—we recently celebrated seven years of marriage and a decade together—and we have two amazing kids who keep life exciting. Fun fact about us: we got married at a bourbon distillery in Kentucky and almost got kicked out of our own wedding!


My career path has been anything but traditional. I started as a train conductor right out of high school, then explored nursing school before an elective accounting class introduced me to my love of numbers. That class changed everything, and I’ve since built a career in bookkeeping. I worked in corporate finance for several years but realized my true passion was helping small business owners. I love solving cash flow challenges, tackling compliance tasks, and helping entrepreneurs find clarity in their businesses.


At Sawtooth Bookkeeping & Consulting, we believe hardworking business owners deserve the clarity and freedom to focus on what truly matters—whether that’s growing your business, spending time with family, or simply finding peace of mind. We’re not just here to clean up your books; we’re here to help you build a solid foundation for confident decisions, consistent paychecks, and sustainable growth. Your success is our success, and we’re committed to helping you thrive.


When I’m not working with clients, I love spending time with my “found family” here in Idaho. We enjoy camping, exploring the state, and traveling to experience the world through the eyes of my kids. In my own time, I love reading and cooking—sharing food is my favorite way to show love. What I enjoy most about my work is educating clients, taking something complicated and making it simple. There’s nothing more rewarding than seeing that “aha moment” when someone finally feels confident about their finances. Helping business owners succeed isn’t just my job—it’s my passion.
