About Sheer Distinction

At Sheer Distinction, we believe bookkeeping should be accurate, trustworthy, and personal.

That’s why every service we provide is handled here in the United States by our own team, never outsourced offshore. When you work with us, you know exactly who’s managing your books, and you can trust that your financial information is secure.

Founded by Maureen Stevens, a certified QuickBooks Online ProAdvisor, and Michael Stevens, a U.S. Army veteran, Sheer Distinction is proud to be a woman-owned, veteran-owned business. Together, we’ve built a firm that blends financial expertise with integrity, accountability, and the personal touch small businesses deserve.

Our mission is simple: to give business owners clarity and confidence in their numbers, without the confusion or overwhelm that often comes with bookkeeping. We take pride in offering hands-on support, clear communication, and services tailored to your business, not cookie-cutter solutions.

With Sheer Distinction, you get more than just bookkeeping. You get a trusted partner who cares about your success as much as you do.
