Accounting & Finance Consulting
Expert accounting solutions for CFOs, controllers, and finance leaders who need strategic support—without adding to their headcount.
Accounting & Finance Challenges? I Solve Them.
As an accounting or finance leader, you’re managing complex financial reporting, audit requirements, and evolving accounting standards—all while keeping your team focused on daily operations. But when time, resources, or expertise are stretched thin, high-stakes projects can stall.
That’s where I come in.
I’m Sheryl D’Souza, an accounting and finance consultant with decades of experience across startups and Fortune 500 companies. I specialize in technical accounting, financial reporting, audit management, and process improvement—helping organizations meet compliance, improve efficiency, and solve accounting challenges quickly.
When you need an expert who can step in, assess the situation, and get it done, I’m your solution.
Companies bring me in when they need:
Technical Accounting & Financial Reporting
Implementing new accounting standards (ASC 842, ASC 606, etc.), preparing financial statements, or documenting complex guidance for auditors and internal teams.
Audit & Compliance Support
Managing external auditors, coordinating responses, and ensuring compliance with SOX, GAAP, and SEC reporting requirements.
Interim & Transitional Support
Stepping in as a fractional Controller or Accounting Lead during leadership transitions, parental leaves, or rapid growth periods—ensuring continuity and stability without the need for a full-time hire.
Accounting Issue Resolution
Investigating and resolving unreconciled accounts, addressing financial reporting errors, and implementing long-term solutions.
Financial Project Management
