Hi, I'm Leah
I spent more than a decade leading finance for public housing authorities and senior living communities — budgeting and forecasting, multi-entity general ledgers, audit preparation, and regulatory reporting under HUD, GASB, REAC, and AHCA.
I started Asset 54 to bring that same rigor and clarity to business owners who deserve reliable, decision-ready financials — without the overhead of a big firm. When you call, you reach me.

Industries I know well
Rooted in Tampa Bay
When I'm not reconciling accounts, you'll find me with my family around Tampa Bay, planning the next road trip. I believe good books should give you that same freedom — to look up from the numbers and enjoy the road ahead.
I work with business owners across the Tampa Bay area and remotely — close enough to know your market, and always just a call or email away. When you reach out, you reach me directly.
