Your business is your dream. Let me help you turn it into reality.
QuickBooks consulting, bookkeeping guidance, and practical financial education for small business owners in South Florida and beyond.
I help you understand your numbers, solve problems, and build the confidence to make informed decisions.
Running a business takes courage, creativity, and a whole lot of hard work. Understanding the finances doesn’t have to be so confusing or frustrating.
Using my 20 years of hands-on business experience, I help business owners create a set of books that actually works for them so they can understand what their numbers are telling them, and discover opportunities they didn’t even know they were missing.
My number one goal is to give you the clarity, confidence, and practical tools you need to succeed on your own.
And yes, I actually enjoy teaching this stuff!
Why Do You Want To Work With Me?
I’ve spent nearly 20 years running businesses in Baltimore, Maryland and Hollywood, Florida. I manage finances, and help other business owners make sense of theirs. I know firsthand how much time, money, and energy goes into building something of your own.
I don’t just tell you what to do or fix your mistakes. I help you understand the logic behind it.
Sometimes that means sorting through years worth of data and re-organizing it for tax filing purposes- while ensuring it’s still easily accessible and understandable to you. Sometimes it means uncovering unnecessary expenses, collecting money that’s been overlooked, or finding opportunities to improve profitability and or growth.
And sometimes the most valuable thing I can do is teach you how to manage it all confidently yourself.
My success isn’t measured by how long you need me. It’s measured by how much better you’re doing- and your peace of mind- because we worked together.
Or as my clients say…

“Ruth is extremely attentive to detail and works to make sure you are happy and everything is reconciled.”- Shanan
Ways We Can Work Together
Business & Financial Guidance
Let’s make your business work for you.
Whether you’re just getting started, struggling to make sense of your books, or ready to take more control of your finances, I’ll meet you where you are.
From QuickBooks setup and cleanup to bookkeeping, profitability, and personalized business guidance, we’ll find an approach that works for you.
I often recommend monthly check-ins at first to catch problems early, answer questions, and build your confidence. As you become more comfortable, we can meet less frequently.
My goal isn’t to make you dependent on me. It’s to help you feel confident enough that you don’t need me.
Financial Education & Entrepreneurship
Real-world skills for real-life confidence.
I love teaching people how money and business actually work. From budgeting and saving to starting a business and understanding profits, my lessons are practical, personalized, and designed to encourage independent thinking.
Whether you’re a student, an aspiring entrepreneur, or simply someone who wants to understand their finances better, we’ll start where you are.
Real Estate
Big decisions deserve thoughtful guidance.
Buying or selling a home involves more than finding the right property or negotiating a price. It’s about understanding your options and making decisions that fit your finances, priorities, and long-term goals.
As a Licensed Florida Realtor with VORO, a background in business and financial management, I bring a practical perspective to the process in South Florida.
A Little About Me
I’ve worn a lot of hats over the years: business owner, bookkeeper, real estate professional, educator, wife, and homeschooling mom.
I spent 15 years owning a hair salon in Baltimore, Maryland, and I’ve spent nearly two decades working with small businesses all over the country with Virtual Meetings. Along the way, I’ve learned that no matter what industry you’re in, people often need the same things: someone who listens, helps them see the bigger picture, and gives them the confidence to move forward.
I’ve always loved figuring things out, but what I enjoy even more is helping someone else have that aha! moment when everything finally makes sense.
Whether I’m helping a business owner understand their finances, teaching someone a new skill, or guiding a family through a real estate decision, my approach is the same: listen first, understand what matters, and help people feel capable of making their own decisions.
That’s what Inspiring Confidence means to me.
Let’s Get Started!
You don’t need to have everything figured out before reaching out. That’s what I’m here for!
Our first consultation is complimentary. It’s an opportunity for us to get to know each other, talk about what you’re hoping to accomplish, and see whether I’m the right person to help.
Some people come to me with one specific problem. Others want hands-on guidance, ongoing support, or to learn alongside a spouse, family member, or team.
I offer individual sessions and prepaid packages, with flexible arrangements depending on your needs. I believe good guidance should be valuable, practical, and reasonably priced for the people receiving it.
Book Your Free Consultation and we can figure out the rest together.
