My name is Matt Tucker and I originally started Small Systems Consulting because I enjoy setting up big picture systems to help business owners manage their data. Over the past eleven years, I have worked with hundreds of farmers, food producers and manufacturers in setting up and fixing their QuickBooks and inventory systems. I enjoy working with people and groups and specialize in customizing suggestions for processes that will meet your needs.

My background is in economics and accounting and have taught and designed college-level accounting courses. I also specialize in communication skills. After extensive training in nonviolent communication, I am now enrolled in a master’s program for counseling. I bring these skills when I work with you on your books. A big part of accounting, and running a small business, is about the soft skills. I help you understand a bit about yourself and your capacity to manage an appropriate-sized accounting system. 

In the past, I have owned a small business (a bakery called From the Ground Up), worked on a farm, taught financial management, and worked professionally in finance and accounting. I have a bachelor’s degree in Business Administration, and a master’s degree in Community Development and Applied Economics, and I am a Certified Quickbooks ProAdvisor.
