About

 
Black and white image of Charissa Samco, owner of Above Bookkeeping, smiling at the camera.

Charissa Samco

I am a northwest native with a passion for people, numbers, and the perfect cup of coffee. I started bookkeeping in 2013, initially to help my friends gain stability and grow their businesses. I found great joy through organizing their complex math puzzles—finding the hidden paths to take them further. These businesses flourished and I was a part of making that happen.

I also had the opportunity to help launch a specialty coffee shop in Portland, Oregon and—just four years after its opening—the owner expanded to multiple locations. This experience gave me the fuel to keep learning and the drive to come alongside other business owners to help them achieve their business and financial goals.
