Who you’ll work with

Hi, I’m
Jessica.

I’ve spent more than 23 years helping small businesses get their records in order and head into tax season knowing where they stand.

I started Books by Jessica after seeing how many self-employed people and direct sellers ran real businesses but only looked at the numbers once a year. The financial side of your work shouldn’t be a mystery, and it shouldn’t wait until April.
