Most accountants see the numbers. I've felt them — as a business owner who's worried about payroll, chased receivables, and stayed up over tax deadlines.
— Vishal Koirala, entrepreneur-turned-accountant

I didn't start as an accountant. I started as an entrepreneur. That path shapes everything about how I work — I approach accounting not as data entry, but as a tool to help you understand your business and make better decisions.

When you describe a cash flow problem, I'm not translating from theory. I know exactly what that feels like. Over eight years I've worked directly with growing businesses through their scaling phase — staying close to the work, and close to them.

Understands operations

I ask about margins, seasonality, and customer concentration — not just transaction counts.

Direct access

When you message, you reach me. No handoffs, no junior staff. You work directly with me.

Long-term partnership

Clients stay years because I stay close — monthly reviews, real conversations, invested in your growth.

How it works

From first message to long-term partner

A clear process with no surprises — and no handoffs to someone who doesn't know your business.

  1. Message me

    WhatsApp, email, or contact form. Tell me about your business and current accounting situation.

    Same-day response, always
  2. I learn your business

    I ask about operations, cash flow, growth plans — not just transactions. Entrepreneur perspective from the first call.

    Business-first thinking
  3. We build the system

    Software setup, data migration, or process redesign. By month two, you're in a clean rhythm with clear numbers.

    Implementation. No guesswork.
  4. Years of partnership

    Monthly reviews, financial conversations, growth planning. I stay close because I'm invested in your success.

    Long-term. Accountable to you.

Entrepreneur perspective

8+ years running businesses — before becoming an accountant

I bring 8+ years as a business owner alongside accounting expertise. I'm not just processing your numbers — I'm helping you see what they mean for growth and risk.

When you mention a cash flow problem, I understand the real stakes because I've lived them. I know exactly what payroll pressure, receivables chasing, and tax deadlines feel like. I ask about margins, seasonal patterns, and customer concentration — the things that actually matter to a growing business.

Most accountants learn accounting theory, then meet businesses. I learned accounting for small business because I'd run businesses first. That's why clients say I'm an accountant who understands business operations, not just transaction entry.

Direct access

You message me. You get me. No queue, no junior staffer.

When you message on WhatsApp, email, or call, you reach me directly. No handoff to an assistant. No "let me check with my manager." You get me.

Your books are my personal responsibility. Your compliance is something I own. Same-day replies isn't a policy — it's just how I work.

For small business owners, this means a partner who knows your business intimately, stays reachable when you need answers, and is invested in your success — not managing your account between five other clients.

Global reach · Nepal expertise

Cloud accounting anywhere. Full compliance for Nepal businesses.

I work with businesses across the world using QuickBooks Online and Xero. Any currency, any time zone, any location.

But for Nepal-based businesses, you get something most international accountants don't have: deep familiarity with the actual compliance landscape. PAN registration, VAT management, IRD filing, payroll tax — I know how these work in practice, not just on paper.

Most accountants who work internationally don't understand Nepal's nuances. Most Nepal accountants haven't worked with global clients at scale. I've done both, because I've lived both.

Frequently asked

Questions clients ask before hiring

Eight years in. Answered honestly — no sales spin.

I ran my own businesses before becoming an accountant — and that shapes how I approach every client. Most accountants learn from textbooks and audits. I learned from payroll anxiety, cash flow crunches, and making decisions with incomplete information. That path means when you describe a problem, I'm not translating from theory. Over 8+ years I've combined operational accounting, ERP consulting, and hands-on bookkeeping into an approach that treats your numbers as a decision tool, not just a compliance exercise.

I work across industries — service businesses, e-commerce, manufacturing, NGOs, health clinics, and freelancers. For confidentiality I don't publish client lists, but you can ask for a reference in your sector. The Results page has detailed case studies from Pick And Drop (logistics, high-volume reconciliation) and Yala Knit & Crafts (manufacturing, full digital transformation). If you'd like to speak to a past client in your industry, I can facilitate an introduction if both parties agree.

Yes — I work with clients globally via WhatsApp, email, and cloud accounting platforms like QuickBooks Online and Xero. Standard availability is Monday–Friday, 9 AM–6 PM Nepal time (UTC+5:45). For clients in significantly different time zones, I'm flexible about scheduling calls at convenient hours. Expect responses within 24 hours. No physical presence required — every deliverable is shared through cloud tools.

I'm QuickBooks Online ProAdvisor Certified and Xero Certified Level 1 Associate — both tested and issued by the software companies themselves. Beyond platform certifications, I hold a BBA from Tribhuvan University and have practical experience with ERPNext implementation and Nepal tax compliance (PAN, VAT, IRD). The real credential is 8+ years of hands-on client work — the certifications back that up.

Services start from $100/month, scaling by business size, transaction volume, and scope. I don't charge for the initial conversation — I'll give you a clear quote after understanding your situation. No long-term lock-ins unless you prefer them. See the full breakdown on the Pricing page, or just ask directly for a number specific to your setup.

Firms are better for large businesses that need audit infrastructure. For small businesses, the firm model often means account manager turnover, junior staff on your books, and attention spread thin. With me, when you message, you reach me — not an assistant. I know your business because I'm the one doing the work. That personal accountability tends to be worth more to small business owners than firm infrastructure.

Strategic questions — "should I raise prices?", "is this expansion viable?" — come up naturally in monthly reviews, and I'll think through the numbers with you. My core expertise is accounting and bookkeeping. For deeper specializations (valuation, M&A, complex tax strategy), I'll refer you to the right person. Many clients find that clean books and regular financial conversations is exactly the strategy they were missing — don't hesitate to ask.

Send a message via WhatsApp, email, or contact form describing your business and current accounting situation — the first conversation is free. I'll listen, ask clarifying questions, and give you a clear picture of how I can help and what it costs. You're under no obligation — if it's not a fit, I'll tell you honestly. If it is, we'll agree on scope and start. First month takes more work (setup, historical cleanup), but by month two you're in a smooth rhythm with clear financial visibility.
