MEET YOUR ACCOUNTANT
I'm Clarita,
Founder of CME Accounting
When you’re tackling business challenges, brainstorming your next big idea, or focused on growing your company, I’m the partner you want by your side. I go above and beyond to help you achieve your goals because I’m passionate about working with clients who share my drive for success and dedication to turning vision into reality.
My entrepreneurial journey started early. Growing up on the beautiful island of Saint Lucia, I discovered my love for business as part of the Junior Achievement Program. Alongside my classmates, I ran an ice cream shop and participated in a business simulation, experiences that opened my eyes to the possibilities of entrepreneurship. Those early lessons ignited my passion and inspired me to study accounting—the language of business.
Over the years, my career has taken me through public accounting at Deloitte TAX LLP, industry roles at Zynga Inc., and impactful work with organizations like Stanford School of Medicine and the National Community Foundation in Saint Lucia. These experiences have given me a deep appreciation for the transformative power of a clear financial strategy, especially for small and mid-sized businesses where personalized attention and tailored solutions can make all the difference.
Beyond my professional experience, I’m deeply rooted in community and collaboration. Volunteering with organizations like the National Association of Black Accountants, United Way through their Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA) Program, and Junior Achievement International has strengthened my belief in the power of mentorship and financial literacy. These values fuel my passion for empowering business owners like you to take control of your finances and build a solid foundation for success.
​
I know firsthand how challenging it can be to juggle the demands of running a business because I’ve lived it myself. That’s why I don’t just provide accounting expertise—I offer partnership, guidance, and tailored solutions that free you to focus on what you do best. Whether you’re just getting started or scaling up, you deserve someone who’s fully invested in your success and ready to guide you every step of the way.
When I’m not working, you’ll often find me hiking, dancing, baking, or spending quality time with my daughter. Like you, I strive to balance what matters most while pursuing my passion.
​
Let’s work together to craft personalized solutions for your business, simplify your finances, and set you up for lasting success. Your vision deserves a solid foundation—and I’m here to help you build it.
