Veronica Herrera
Veronica Herrera is the face of Summit Bookkeeping, meeting with clients and training them on how to read their financial reports, working on strategy, and reviewing work. She has a knack for helping her clients lower their taxes, increase their profits, and manage their cash flow better.
Veronica takes great pride in being the founder and owner of Summit Bookkeeping, which provides accounting services to small and mid-sized businesses. Veronica’s greatest satisfaction is watching her small business clients grow and surpass their goals.
Some of the recent accomplishments Veronica has helped clients with include correcting a $30,000 invoicing error that would have increased the client’s taxes if not caught.
Prior to founding her own firm in 2007, Veronica worked as a bookkeeper for an investment banking firm and a nonprofit law firm. She also has sales experience in the telecommunications industry. Veronica earned her degree in accounting and political science from Santa Monica College. When she is not working, she enjoys going to movies and theater, reading presidential biographies (she’s a huge history buff), and walking her dog.
