What we do

Clarity and Ownership

We help companies with a fragmented books achieve clarity and alignment. We own the numbers that leave the building — from board packs, investor updates, to the lender's quarterly file.

Services Offered

Core services for stronger financial positioning

Monthly close oversight

Working with your bookkeeper, not replacing them. Target is a six-day close; most companies start north of twenty.

Board reporting package

Written, sent ahead of time, and presented in the room. Not a spreadsheet export with a title slide

18-month rolling forecast

Three scenarios, updated monthly, reconciled to actuals so it stays trustworthy.

Banking, lenders and covenants

Facility management, covenant tracking, and the reporting they require.

How we work

Our structured approach to positioning

Two to four days a month on site or remote, plus a standing weekly call with you and whoever owns the numbers day to day.


Fixed dates every month. You'll know when the close lands, when the board pack lands, and when the forecast updates, from month one.


I attend and present the finance section. That's included, not billed separately.


Six-month minimum, then month to month. Thirty days' notice either way.


$7,500–$12,000/month depending on board cadence and how much cleanup month one requires. Scoped in writing first. No hourly billing.


We write the succession plan in month two, not month twenty. When you're ready for a full-time hire I'll write the job description, sit in on final rounds, and overlap a month so nothing leaves with me.

Questions before the first call.

Still have questions?

What does this typically cost?

The Raise starts at $28,000 for an 8–12 week engagement. Ongoing fractional CFO work runs $7,500–$12,000 a month depending on scope and board cadence, with a six-month minimum. Audit and board prep is quoted per engagement. No engagement starts without a written scope, and I don't bill hourly.

How is this different from an outsourced accounting firm?

An accounting firm records what already happened. A CFO decides what happens next — what you can afford to spend, what the model has to prove before you raise, and what your board needs to see to stay confident. I work alongside your bookkeeper, not instead of them.

Will my investors take a fractional CFO seriously?

Most of my referrals come from investors. Fractional finance is now the default at this stage, and platform teams at several funds keep a shortlist. What your board cares about is whether the numbers hold up in diligence — not how many days a week the person who built them is in your office.

What happens when we hire a full-time CFO?

Good — that's the goal. I've helped four clients write the job description, run the search, and hand over a function that already works. I'd rather be the reason you're ready than the reason you're not.

How fast can you start?

I work with four companies at a time, so it depends on where the current engagements are. Fit checks get answered within two business days, and I'll tell you honestly if the next opening is eight weeks out.
