    I sought Mina's expertise in navigating the startup world specifically in conducting effective discussions on negotiations. For example, negotiating as the only female cofounder on a startup Cap Table. Mina has always cut through the noise with an amazing degree of precision, discerning what is being said, and understanding what is being meant even though the ideas are not articulated effectively so as to provide counsel in the most meaningful way. I have been ridiculously impressed by Mina's ability to get to the heart of the matter so as to dispense expert advice in the most efficient way possible. She has always exceeded my expectations and gone above and beyond to support me in a multitude of aspects such as finance and leadership to make me successful.

    Mina is not your average CPA/CFO. If you are a startup founder, you need to hire her! She'll not only make sure your numbers are achievable and defendable, but she'll also help you get your pitch put together. Her broad knowledge & expertise include not only finance but also markets and go-to-market strategies and options. She ensured that I understood how every number was derived and was able to explain myself confidently. Mina is fast, reliable, and accountable. She's been a great strategic partner to have on my funding round journey, and she makes the experience fun. I can't recommend her services more highly.

    I found Mina via a community group when I was looking for an Accountant to help me quickly as my previous Accountant didn’t do the work that he was supposed to do. I was skeptical about choosing another Accountant given my poor experience with my previous Accountant. Mina was great at taking the time to explain and educate. She showed attention to detail and helped me in a very short amount of time. I appreciated the clarity and information in supporting me with making informed decisions and completing my tax return. Thank you, Mina!
