Like most small businesses, Emerald Sky Financial was inspired by looking at an industry and deciding that it could be better; the need for career independence; and the appreciation of a work/life balance.
After hearing my friends talk about their tax preparers with a mix of fear and shame, I decided to grow a consulting and tax firm that would be welcoming, accessible, and above all, a friendly and non-judgmental space to discuss the endless possibilities for your business.
I’ve had the pleasure of working with a variety of businesses including law firms, lobstermen, retail shops, new media agencies, landscapers, artists and craftspeople, food industry specialists, and state-legal cannabis businesses.
I support charities such as Gather, HAVEN, the Pope Memorial Humane Society, Rockingham County Meals on Wheels, The Chase Home and The Joan G. Lovering Health Center. I’m also a Trustee of the Portsmouth Public Library.
In 2021 I became an Enrolled Agent (EA) which is the highest certification awarded by the IRS.
In my spare time I visit art museums, sell vintage and collectible books online, garden, read around 75 books a year, and hang out with my grown-up daughter and my two cats.
