Professional Bookkeeper: Kathy Petersen: Your Trusted Partner
Some clients like to know exactly who they are trusting with their finances, so I have included a personal side to this as well.
I love animals, reading, and camping. We can be found most weekends enjoying the lake view around a campfire.
I have two grown children, and my husband and I have raised our granddaughter most of her life..
We share our lives with two African Greys, four indoor/outdoor cats, and a remarkable fella, Tonka, our smooth-coat Chow Chow.
We live in Dinwiddie County, Virginia, where I was raised in a rural environment.
