About Rebekah Bailey

Recognized expert across corporate, nonprofit, small business, and higher-education sectors.

Twenty-five years of accounting and financial leadership — financial reporting, budgeting, audits, tax strategy, grants, and GAAP compliance — turning complex data into clear, actionable decisions for the businesses I serve.

I've spent over 25 years working in accounting and finance, helping businesses make sense of their financial data and maintain a solid financial footing. I love helping small businesses meet their goals in financial growth.

Over the years, I've served as a Controller, CFO, and tax accountant — seeing accounting from multiple sides: CPA firms, higher education, corporate environments, and manufacturing. That experience taught me that business owners need more than someone who can keep accurate books. They need someone who can look at the numbers, understand the operation behind them, and help identify what those numbers are saying about the business.

That's what I bring to KRB Accounting & Consulting. I combine solid accounting with real-world business experience, so my clients don't just receive financial statements — they gain a financial partner who helps them understand and improve their business.

I know that running a business can feel overwhelming, especially when it comes to finances. That's why I take a straightforward, hands-on approach. I take the time to understand how your business operates so I can provide bookkeeping, accounting, and tax support that meets your needs and makes your life easier.

My mission

Bring clarity and peace of mind to business owners. I want you to feel confident in your numbers, supported in your decisions, and free to focus on running your business while I handle the financial details.

My values

Doing things right, communicating clearly, and building trust through dependable, honest work — so my clients feel confident in their finances.

My approach

I take the time to understand how your business actually operates, then provide bookkeeping, accounting, and tax support that fits the way you work.
