Sarah Reeves

Payroll & Project Management Advisor

Hello! My name is Sarah Reeves and I’m excited to share a bit about me.

My husband Steven and I are originally from the Northwest! We helped my family start a business and in January 2021 we felt called to Wisconsin where I started working with Veronica learning and falling in love with the world of Payroll. In 2022 I took the leap and started up Straight Up Payroll LLC. Business partner to Veronica’s Straight Up Bookkeeping.

I’ve since then worked closely with non-profits in both the mid and north west of the United States. Helped create employee handbooks, SOP’s, step by step payroll program trainings, Workers Comp Audits, identified holes within current procedures and implemented solutions, Set up New State Employment registrations’, and more.

My favorite activities are geocaching, playing piano, gaming, and learning new food/baking recipes. We are kept busy and on our toes with our 3 corgi’s, and two children.

I have 3 years of basic bookkeeping experience, quarterly DOR & IRS tax payments for owners and project management tracking. I have 3+ years of experience with out of state clients.

Accounting Advisor

Hi, nice to meet you! Here is a little bit about myself. I opened up our sister company Straight Up Bookkeeping LLC in 2019 and my family and I moved from Central Oregon to Wisconsin in 2020. Some of my favorite activities are exploring the beautiful outdoors, geocaching, baking, cooking, and other craft activities. My husband and I stay busy with our cat, dog, and our little one.

I have six+ years of firm experience working with multiple industries and clients in their accounting goals. I have worked in payroll, bookkeeping, and taxes giving me a better perspective on the many facets that make up a business. I have a Bachelor’s degree in accounting from NW Christian University (Go Beacons!) and I am QuickBooks Pro Advisor.
