About the Founder

Enterprise-grade finance automation, built for small business.

I founded Pierstone Advisory after years of managing high-volume finance operations for category-leading Australian brands—including a national leader in office technology and a market-leading kitchenware franchise. Supporting more than 400 retail locations nationwide in total, I saw firsthand how manual processes stall growth and drain resources.

In those high-stakes corporate environments, I engineered custom solutions to eliminate the bottleneck: rebuilding reconciliation workflows to slash data-entry times from 30 hours down to 8, and recovering 10 full business days every month on bank reconciliations. By utilizing advanced Excel macros, VBA, and AI-assisted scripting, I built robust, reliable bridges to move data across ERP systems, Outlook, and spreadsheets.

Enterprise tools like BlackLine and FloQast exist to solve these exact problems, but they require massive corporate budgets, complex software deployments, and months of onboarding that mid-market businesses and growing SMEs simply don't need.

Pierstone Advisory was born to bring that exact same corporate discipline, precision, and tech-driven efficiency straight to your business via a simple, accessible solution. My goal is straightforward: eliminate your manual work, dramatically reduce human error, and hand you back the time you need to focus on what actually moves the needle.
