MEET YOUR BOOKKEEPER

It’s so nice to meet you!

Hi and thanks for stopping by! My name is Elgin, the face behind MET Core Bookkeeping. I’m a detail-loving person with a passion for helping small business owners get their books organized and stress-free. I’ve been in banking for awhile now, specializing in credit underwriting which involves reviewing financial reports day in and day out. Alongside my banking career, I work as a passionate cloud bookkeeper. My corporate job showed me just how important clean and accurate bookkeeping is for business success. I saw how solid financials opened doors, while messy books held people back from funding, growth, and clarity.

That insight inspired me to help small business owners take control of their finances with confidence. Through METCB, I provide simple, reliable, and personalized support to keep their books in order and their business moving forward. Let me deal with the receipts and reports, while you get back to doing what lights you up!

FUN FACT

While MET stands for my initials, it also reflects my core goals: I’ve “met” the needs of modern business owners who want clarity, confidence, and control over their finances. It’s more than a name. It’s a word that we’ve MET the moment, MET the challenge, and MET my clients where they are.
