We've Been Where You Are

I learned the fundamentals of business from the ground up, working in my family's restaurant from age 12. Watching my mother manage every aspect of the operation—from daily finances to regulatory compliance—gave me a unique perspective on what small business owners actually face. After spending 10 years working with major account firms and earning my CPA license, I discovered that most accountants understand the technical side but miss the human side of business ownership.

My background gives me an advantage that textbook-trained CPAs simply don't have: I understand both the operational challenges and the financial solutions. I've seen how poor financial management creates bottlenecks that prevent growth, and I've learned how proper systems can free business owners to focus on what they do best. This dual perspective allows me to spot problems before they become costly and implement solutions that actually work in real-world business environments.

I founded Gran Vista CPA to bridge the gap between traditional accounting and what business owners actually need: a proactive financial partner who understands their world.
