About Us

As many business owners know, it is often a struggle to find an honest, competent, reliable bookkeeper. Finding one who can also tell you what your numbers mean is rarer still. We can offer peace of mind that your financial data will be handled with confidentiality and the utmost care, and a commitment to a high level of support so you can focus your time and energy on running your business. Because we are more than bookkeepers, we pair meticulous monthly books with advisory insight, and when you're ready, fractional CFO support.

OUR MISSION
Helping business owners succeed by providing them with the expertise and support they need to focus on what they do best.

OUR VISION
To create a workplace where everyone feels valued, respected, and supported. When connected we are more likely to be productive, engaged, and happy.

CORE VALUES
We believe that relationships are the most important, and we strive to provide personalized care to our clients. We want to understand your business and your goals, so that we can offer you with the best possible service.

How We Got Started

Crisp Bookkeeping is a team of highly qualified women who are passionate about helping small businesses succeed. The company was founded in Encinitas, California in 2010 by Maria Crisp, who is joined by sisters Nicole and Christina. The three sisters have unique expertise in finance and accounting, and have lived in Japan, Korea, Macau, Chile, and Australia, giving them a deep understanding of different cultures and business practices.

The experienced professionals also include Amy, a former Taxpayer Advocate with the IRS who is now a senior accounting manager. Erica, from Orange County, in tax and compliance, leveraging her extensive experience as a legal assistant. Michiyo, from Japan and now in Virginia, adds years of experience in both U.S. accounting firms and her own consulting business abroad.

This team has created a bookkeeping firm known for its high level of service, and its commitment to excellence, and ability to meet the needs of a diverse range of clients.

Her deep knowledge of the local market was immediately apparent, and her honesty and transparency throughout the process put me at ease. But what truly sets Debby apart is her go-getter attitude and genuine care for clients. She wasn't just selling a house, she was helping me achieve a dream. Debby is incredibly organized and efficient. Keeping me informed every step of the way and ensured everything went smoothly from listing to closing. If you're looking for a real estate agent who is knowledgeable, honest, dedicated, and, dare I say, even therapeutic, look no further than Debby Neff. You won't just find a realtor, you'll find a friend and advocate in your corner."

Xero is more business owner friendly than accountant friendly, and I would normally only recommend it if you require third party integrations (CRM, Merchant Accts, etc.). Xero is a programmers dream.
