About
Developer, tax professional, and business consultant.
I'm Andrew. I split my time between writing code and doing taxes — an unusual combination that makes more sense than it sounds. Both are about solving problems with systems.
Based in St. George, Utah. I work with startups, small businesses, and individuals who need someone to make their QuickBooks stop being a disaster, or their software actually ship.
What I do
Three areas of focus. They often overlap.
Development
Full-stack web apps, APIs, and automations that save hours of manual work.
Tax & Accounting
Tax prep and planning for individuals and businesses. Bookkeeping cleanup.
Consulting
Helping businesses structure operations and decide when to automate.
Background
I got into coding because I kept running into problems that seemed solvable with software. Turns out a lot of business operations are just repetitive tasks waiting to be automated.
The tax work started as a side thing and grew from there. It's detailed, systematic, and has a clear outcome — either you did it right or you didn't.
These days I split my time between both. The combination is unusual, but it means I can understand the full picture when a business owner says "I need help with my finances" or "I need a better system."
How I work
- — Async communication preferred. Email or messages beat meetings for most things.
- — I stay current on frameworks, standards, and tax updates that affect day-to-day decisions.
- — Direct about timelines and costs. If something changes, you'll know early.
- — I don't take on work I can't do well. If it's outside my expertise, I'll say so.

Most projects sit between software, finance, and operations. I focus on systems that reduce friction and make the work predictable.
