Bookkeeping, Accounting and CFO

Paula has been absolutely amazing to my company. She is one of the sharpest tax accountants I have ever met. She takes her time to really look and listen to your companies needs and processes.. After a full review of my taxes, she saved me thousands of dollars. Her personal touch is refreshing in today’s world.

We highly recommend Paula and her team. Not only does she expertly manage our business and personal finances in real time, but she also took on the monumental task of cleaning up and completely rebuilding our QuickBooks system—which, thanks to years of incorrect use, was a tangled mess.Paula essentially started from scratch, meticulously reconstructing and organizing years of disorganized data. What would have been overwhelming for anyone else, she handled with professionalism, precision, and grace.Beyond her technical expertise, Paula is incredibly responsive and generous with her time. Even when our (many) questions fall outside the traditional scope of her role, she answers quickly, thoroughly, and with genuine care. She’s more than a CFO—Paula has become an indispensable part of our business. We feel so fortunate to have her on our team.

We have worked with Paula over the past few years, entrusting her with two key areas of our operation: General accounting (bookkeeping) and Specialized tax advice both for our C-Corp in the United States and for our non-profit organization (501(c)(3)). We especially highlight her technical knowledge in tax regulations, her ability to adapt to complex legal structures, and her proactivity in anticipating tax and accounting obligations. Thanks to her work, we have been able to orderly comply with reporting and filing requirements with the IRS and other agencies, always maintaining the financial transparency required by our work with international donors. Her service is reliable, efficient, and personalized, something key for an organization like ours that operates in multiple jurisdictions and with different legal structures.

I have had the opportunity to work with AssetSmart, and specifically with Paula, whom I consider a highly qualified, committed, and reliable professional. Her attention is always courteous, proactive, and focused on providing effective solutions for any situation that arises. Operating an online university in the United States, with presence in several Latin American countries, involves significant accounting and tax challenges. However, thanks to the timely support, guidance, and ongoing accompaniment from AssetSmart, we have been able to fulfill our accounting and tax obligations in an organized, efficient manner, and without setbacks. I highly recommend their services.
