Professional Bookkeeping Services for Small Businesses

At Hicks Bookkeeping Charlotte, we believe business owners should spend less time worrying about their books and more time growing their businesses. Our bookkeeping services are designed to provide clarity, organization, and peace of mind, giving you confidence that your financial records are accurate and up to date.

My path into bookkeeping is not the traditional one, and I believe that gives me a unique perspective. For more than 15 years, I have worked alongside business owners in the petroleum and convenience store industry. During that time, I served in a variety of roles that required organization, accountability, clear communication, and attention to detail. I learned firsthand the challenges that small business owners face and the importance of having reliable information to make sound decisions.

I later served as a Project Manager responsible for overseeing projects with significant budgets and financial considerations, and I currently work in data management, where precision, consistency, and organization are essential. These experiences reinforced the same qualities that make for dependable bookkeeping: accuracy, attention to detail, organization, and clear communication.

As a Certified Bookkeeper and Intuit Certified QuickBooks Online ProAdvisor, my goal is to provide practical bookkeeping solutions that help small business owners feel confident in their numbers and focus on what they do best—running and growing their businesses.
