About Sheryl

A Little Bit About Me

I’m a licensed and bonded CPA and have had my own private practice since 1976. I specialize in startup consulting, payroll service, and QuickBooks support. I’m the Founder of the Business Startup Success Club and the author of “ Save $100s in Taxes With a Home Office Deduction.”

I helped develop the tax curriculum for the Business Ownership Initiative of Indiana and its Central Indiana Women’s Business Center, where I teach workshops about taxes, recordkeeping, and business startup.

My clients have included small business owners and solo entrepreneurs working in such fields as dentistry, physical therapy, landscape architecture, commercial real estate brokerage, property and casualty insurance, dog grooming, education, alternative medicine, and on-line music sales.

I have a BS in math with specialization in computer science from Purdue University (Go Boilers!) and an MBA with concentrations in accounting and finance from The University of Chicago.

I’ve been a computer programmer and analyst as well as an auditor for a large public accounting firm. I’ve assembled, tested, installed, and supported microcomputer accounting systems for small businesses (hardware and software).

I was recently appointed as Treasurer of the Board of Directors for the Autism Society of Indiana. I’ve previously served on the Boards of the Indianapolis Rainbow Chamber of Commerce and Crossroads Performing Arts.

Other Places to Connect With Me On-Line

I regularly post articles about business startup, taxes, and technology on my business blog and I frequently guest post for other business bloggers.

I’m the “financial guru” for the Web Sellers Circle, where I hang out in the forums answering questions about accounting, bookkeeping, and taxes for the community of online sellers.

I serve on the panel of experts at the International Association of Solopreneurs, writing articles and teaching teleclasses on business startup, taxes, and technology.
