Is this you?
Bookkeeping often feels like a task that can wait until the horizon clears, only for you to realize you have an inaccurate almanac in your hands just when you need to make a critical decision. If you feel uncertain about your position or overwhelmed by the data, you are in the right place.
What I do
I offer online bookkeeping services to business owners who build things to last. Nathaniel Bowditch, the mathematician who revolutionized maritime navigation, believed sailors deserved accurate numbers in their almanacs—because faulty figures cost lives.
While the stakes in business may look different, the principle remains the same: unreliable numbers lead to poor decisions. Business owners deserve precise, timely records so they can lead with confidence. At Almanac Bookkeeping, I deliver numbers you can rely on.

Meet the Navigator
My name is Susanna, and I founded Almanac Bookkeeping to help small business owners feel confident in their numbers so they can focus on the work they love.
My approach is influenced by Nathaniel Bowditch, a bookkeeper and navigator who saw sailors’ need for accurate almanacs and decided to do something about it. I believe business owners deserve the same reliability and care in their financial records.
In a world that often feels corporate and impersonal, I believe there is room for something better: shared values, presence, and work guided by story and the spirit of adventure.
Whether you’re just visiting or we become better acquainted, I wish you fair winds and following seas.
Every ship needs a navigator; every business needs a bookkeeper.
