Work experience
Founder & Certified Public Accountant
Self Employed • Self-employed
Mar 2020 - Present • 6 yrs 4 mos
As the Founder and CPA of Lisa Shannon CPA, I help entrepreneurs, small businesses, e-commerce sellers, and growing companies gain clarity and confidence in their finances. My focus is on delivering accurate bookkeeping, tax-ready financials, account reconciliations, financial reporting, and proactive tax support that helps business owners stay compliant and make informed decisions. Over the years, I have worked with businesses across multiple industries, helping clients clean up disorganized books, catch up overdue records, improve cash flow visibility, reduce accounting errors, and prepare for tax season with confidence. Using QuickBooks Online, Xero, and modern accounting systems, I create reliable financial processes that save time and support long-term growth. I believe accounting should do more than track numbers. It should provide the insights business owners need to understand performance, identify opportunities, and make better financial decisions. My goal is to serve as a trusted long-term financial partner, delivering professional, confidential, and results-driven accounting solutions that allow clients to focus on growing their business while knowing their finances are in capable hands.
Senior Accounting Associate
Deloitte • Full-time
Feb 1997 - Dec 2019 • 22 yrs 10 mos
At Deloitte, I worked with business owners and organizations across multiple industries, helping them maintain accurate financial records, improve reporting accuracy, and stay compliant with accounting and tax requirements. My responsibilities included bookkeeping, account reconciliations, financial statement preparation, tax support, audit assistance, and financial analysis. I collaborated with clients to identify accounting issues, resolve discrepancies, streamline financial processes, and provide clear insights into their financial performance. This experience strengthened my expertise in QuickBooks, financial reporting, tax compliance, and business accounting best practices. Working in one of the world's leading accounting firms taught me that accounting is more than numbers, it's about helping businesses make informed decisions, reduce risk, improve profitability, and achieve sustainable growth. Today, I apply those same professional standards and client-focused approach to every project, delivering accurate, reliable, and results-driven accounting solutions.
