Our Story
A journey of growth, community, and commitment to excellence in financial services.
“When I moved to Vancouver, C street downtown is where I made my very first friends, learned bookkeeping, built my first financial model, and created my first revenue and expense forecasts. When the pandemic hit, I was on C Street, helping dozens of small business clients navigate unprecedented challenges as a bookkeeper. And C Street is where I now live, work, and raise my family.”

Our Story
In 2015, I lived in Vancouver and flew to NYC for work weekly as a Chief Revenue Officer of the 19th fastest growing company in the country. I decided to quit that kind of work and learn how to serve small businesses so I could be around my kids more. Now I have 15 years experience in bookkeeping, accounting, revenue, and tax, and am grateful to be working daily for people I respect more than anybody I ever met in a board room.
I built C Street so I can do what I believe we should all do: serve our neighbors and raise our children well. If you want to do the same, C Street can handle the numbers.

Honesty
We are committed to being real with our customers and protecting their ability to see the truth. We will tell you what you need to hear, whether you want to hear it or not.
Growing Community
We are thrilled to see this city growing; our community is created by the newest among us. We welcome Portlanders, Californians, and immigrants from beyond our borders. We reject the idea of selecting community based on vote or party, and we refuse to choose who we associate with based on belief system.
