As a small business owner with two brick and mortar tattoo studios, I have been handling my own bookkeeping. But when this year’s tax season arrived, I quickly realized I was way in over my head in resolving issues with both my P&Ls and Balance Sheets. I needed a professional! I was referred to Dana through a colleague, and I just could not be happier with her services. Not only was she able to step in at the eleventh hour, but she immediately took action, addressed QuickBooks issues both major and minor, and in very short order had my books complete and ready to file. 

Having Dana’s expertise proved invaluable to my businesses. Her expert-level knowledge, her attentiveness to my business needs in a tight timeframe, and her excellent communication skills made working with Dana truly a pleasure, and one of my best business decisions this year! I highly recommend working with Dana for any and all matters regarding business bookkeeping. Five out of five stars!

For over a year serving as the bookkeeper for the Viñoly Foundation, Dana demonstrated exceptional professionalism, responsiveness, and expertise. She successfully updated and organized our QuickBooks, ensuring accuracy, clarity, and timely reporting throughout her engagement with us. Dana is not only highly knowledgeable in her field but also a pleasure to work with—personable, reliable, and consistently proactive. Her services were also very reasonably priced, offering excellent value without compromising quality.

I highly recommend Dana for any bookkeeping or financial management needs. She would be an asset to any organization seeking a trusted, capable, and professional bookkeeper.

We’ve been working with Robin Business Consulting for several months and it has made a huge difference in our collections consistency and cash flow. Dana Sather is an expert in our industry and software and has made many valuable recommendations on our Ajera setup and processes. Talk with her if you’re tired of just winging it with your bookkeeping.

Working with Dana has been a game-changer in my understanding of Deltek Ajera. Coming from many years of experience with Deltek VantagePoint, I found the transition to Ajera challenging because of its unique nuances and structure. Dana not only bridged that gap for me, but she did it in a way that matched my learning style perfectly.

She has a rare ability to adjust her pace, speeding up when I grasp concepts quickly and slowing down when I need more detail. She takes the time to ensure I truly understand the program rather than just moving through a checklist. Her teaching style is clear, patient, and practical, which makes even complex features feel approachable.

I highly recommend Dana to anyone needing guidance with Ajera. She brings expertise, flexibility, and a genuine investment in making sure you’re confident in using the system.

We’ve had the pleasure of working with Dana for some time now and are truly grateful for all of her support. Her expertise and responsiveness have been invaluable to our firm. Dana has made significant contributions in many areas, and I highly recommend her services to any AEC firm.

I have had the opportunity over the last several months to work with Dana on a contract basis to help cover for an employee on leave. Dana went above and beyond to not only provide excellent coverage, but also to jump in and help improve processes and train our Principals and Project Managers to make everything more efficient.  We are going to continue working with Dana on an ongoing basis and I highly recommend her and will take every opportunity to work together in the future!

~ Rory Carroll, Principal at AXIS/GFA Architecture + Design

Dana was hired as a temporary replacement for our bookkeeper during her maternity leave. She is absolutely knowledgeable in accounting as well as master of Ajera accounting software. During her tenure she helped to simplify and setup several improvements to the company accounting processes. I have a lot of respect to her professional knowledge and would highly recommend her to anyone who needs spotless business books.

~ Radim Blazej, Principal of Axis/GFA Architecture + Design

Dana stepped into a role that demanded a large amount of responsibility and pressure and she did it flawlessly. Her knowledge and execution in this role exceeded expectations and she quickly became our trusted advisor, looking to Dana for the business solutions and ways to do things better. I look forward to working with Dana in the future!
