About
From Nonprofit Manager to Nonprofit Champion
I help Executive Directors and Finance Managers who are frustrated with always playing catch-up. So many organizations find themselves in situations where leaders feel:
  1. Their organization's ability to deliver services is suffering because so much time and energy is consumed by meeting reporting deadlines and keeping up with the demand of grant compliance, audits, and ever-changing funding requirements.
  1. They feel stuck and unsure of where to start because limited resources make it difficult to stay on top of everything. It is impossible to get ahead.
If either or both of these are true for you, let me come work for you! I have over 10 years of experience streamlining financial operations for complex, multi-million dollar non-profits, and I can do it at a fraction of the cost of a full-time CPA, or as a supplement to your existing finance team.

Who I Am

My name is Masa and I am a licensed CPA with extensive experience in nonprofit management. Having worked in nonprofit sector over a decade, I witnessed firsthand how organizations struggle with limited resources and expertise to navigate through complexities of nonprofit operations—all while facing the pressure to do more with less. This ongoing condition inspired me to look for a solution, and I am here to offer a practical and effective way to help organizations like yours succeed.
