Meet your bookkeeper
Hello, I’m Kelea Merritt!

I earned a BS in Business Administration from The College of New Jersey, and I am also certified in QuickBooks Online and hold a Certificate in Virtual Bookkeeping.
From a young age, my life has been guided by a persistent passion for numbers. Being naturally structured, analytical, and detailed oriented, I found my true calling in the world of finance.
My professional journey began in IT and Quality Assurance, fields that taught me the importance of precision and the art of problem-solving. However, it was a pivotal moment of caregiving for my elderly parents that truly illuminated my path. In their financial needs, I discovered both a calling and a sense of fulfillment. Ensuring my parents' financial well-being gave me a profound sense of purpose. Guiding them through their daily financial activities, I understood the importance of careful management.
As an aspiring entrepreneur, I felt the power of meaningful work and its potential to uplift lives. I want to extend this impact to others. Thus, I founded Bookkeep With Merritt, a virtual bookkeeping service aimed at supporting virtual entrepreneurs and small business owners. My mission is to save you time and empower your business growth by meticulously managing your books. Together, we'll build the foundation for success.
