Biography

Built on 20 Years of Real Financial Experience

Fractional Controller  ·  Finance Leader  ·  QuickBooks Pro Advisor  ·  Atlanta, GA

Colter Accounting Solutions was founded after more than 20 years helping organizations — ranging from growing businesses to Fortune 500 and public-sector environments — improve financial visibility, operational structure, and decision-making. The firm was created to give growing businesses something most never get: access to a senior finance leader who brings structure, clarity, and real financial insight — without the cost of a full-time executive hire.

He brings the financial rigor and operational discipline of large-scale organizations, tailored for businesses that are ready to move beyond basic accounting and build scalable financial infrastructure.

His career has been built at the intersection of controllership and FP&A — combining the discipline of financial governance with the strategic perspective that helps leadership teams understand not just what happened, but what it means and what to do next.

Systems & Scalability

Colter Accounting Solutions also brings experience improving financial workflows and reporting environments through scalable processes, dashboarding, and practical automation. This includes work across QuickBooks Online and NetSuite environments supporting organizations ranging from growing businesses to complex multi-site operations.

Why Colter Exists

Growing businesses deserve more than basic accounting.

Most growing businesses reach a point where their financial foundation doesn’t match their ambition. The books are behind, the reports aren’t trusted, and leadership is making decisions without the full picture.

Colter Accounting Solutions was founded to bridge that gap — bringing the financial structure, discipline, and forward-looking insight that growing businesses need, delivered by a senior financial leader who is invested in their success.

From “What happened?” to “What does this mean — and what should we do next?”
