Way CFO Consulting
I’m Kirsten, an Interim and Fractional CFO who brings a rare blend of tax expertise, financial strategy, operational structure, and data‑driven decision‑making to small businesses that need high‑level support without the cost of a full‑time executive.
Over the past decade, I’ve built a career across public accounting, tax management, data analytics, policy consulting, and operational leadership. Today, I use that experience to help business owners gain clarity, confidence, and control over their financial direction.
My background includes preparing and reviewing complex tax returns, resolving IRS inquiries, managing year‑end accounting, and supporting businesses through audits, financial clean‑ups, and operational restructuring. I’ve served as a Tax Manager, Data Analyst, and Specialist for multiple CPA firms, where I strengthened systems, improved compliance, and helped clients make informed financial decisions.
Beyond accounting, I’ve worked as a policy consultant providing budget analysis, research, and strategic recommendations, experience that sharpened my ability to interpret data, communicate clearly, and guide leaders through high‑stakes decisions.
I’ve also held roles in operations management, software auditing, entrepreneurship, and customer‑facing leadership. These experiences taught me how businesses function from the inside out, not just on paper, and how to build systems that actually work in real‑world environments.
Today, I bring all of that together to support small business owners who need:
Clear financial structure
Reliable accounting and tax guidance
Operational systems that reduce chaos
Strategic insight for growth and decision‑making
My goal is simple: to take the financial and operational weight off your shoulders so you can focus on running your business with confidence.
If you’re ready for clarity, stability, and a trusted financial partner, I’m here to help.
