About Sandra
Sandra Mitchell is a personal finance writer and certified bookkeeper with 11 years of hands-on experience helping small businesses manage their accounting. She's the kind of person who can look at a balance sheet and spot the problem in under a minute — and then explain it to you in plain English.
Sandra spent seven years as a full-charge bookkeeper for a regional construction firm where she used QuickBooks Desktop Premier daily for job costing, payroll, and financial reporting. She managed the books for projects ranging from residential renovations to multi-million dollar commercial builds, so she understands how QuickBooks works in the real world — not just in a demo.
Now Sandra writes practical guides and comparison articles — like QuickBooks Desktop vs QuickBooks Online — that help business owners choose the right QuickBooks version for their needs. Her writing comes from a place of actual experience — she's been the person sitting at the desk trying to reconcile accounts at the end of the month, and she writes for people doing the same thing.
She holds a B.S. in Accounting from Missouri State University and is a Certified Bookkeeper through the American Institute of Professional Bookkeepers (AIPB).
