Welcome!
Feeling stressed about your accounting, marketing, or IT? Well, you’ve landed in the right spot!
Take Root kicked off in 2017, offering social media marketing to small businesses across Nova Scotia until Covid decided to crash the party. Now, I’ve pivoted to business consulting, helping small businesses across the province thrive. Based in Yarmouth, NS, I take a hands-on approach to make your admin and accounting processes as smooth as butter. Small business owners are the real MVPs of our economy, and with 25 years of experience (and a few degrees under my belt), I’m here to share my wisdom. So, whether you need training, a game plan, or just someone to brainstorm with, I’m your go-to guru!
