Owner & President
About the firm
CPA leadership, a responsive team, and long-term client relationships.
Passageway Financial is a CPA-led accounting firm serving owner-operated small businesses across the country. We keep books tax-ready, coordinate business and personal returns, and plan throughout the year with a responsive team that already understands the numbers.
Before tax season
Stop finding out what you owe after it's too late to plan.
Reactive accounting records what already happened. We keep the numbers current so tax decisions can happen before year-end—when legitimate planning opportunities may still be available.
Tax surprises
No projection · no time to prepare
Your return gets prepared after the year is over, but no one told you what was coming. Current books and timely projections help you prepare earlier.
Disconnected books and taxes
Two providers · no complete picture
When the bookkeeper and tax preparer work separately, important context gets lost. We keep both responsibilities with one team using the same information.
Books behind at tax time
Cleanup project · rushed filing
We keep books accurate, current, organized, and tax-ready so filing season does not begin with months of reconstruction.
A reactive or unavailable accountant
One annual conversation · unanswered questions
You have a responsive team throughout the year to help with routine tax and accounting issues and evaluate legitimate planning opportunities before year-end.

Our promise to you
Three guarantees, not just promises.
You shouldn't have to worry about whether your accountant will deliver. These guarantees remove the risk from switching — and from staying.
30-Day Satisfaction Guarantee
If you're not happy with your first month of ongoing service, we'll refund those fees. If we've already completed a significant one-time project — such as a full books cleanup or tax return — its value is deducted from the refund.
No Long-Term Contracts
Cancel anytime with 30 days' notice. We earn your business every month — never lock you in with setup traps or exit fees.
Late-Filing Penalty Coverage
We file every return and payroll form on time. If we miss a deadline and cause a penalty or interest charge, we pay it.
