Traci Harper

Over a span of 15 years at ADP, I climbed the ranks to Senior General Ledger Specialist before our department was outsourced. Driven by my penchant for challenges, I pursued my dream of opening an American Bakery in a foreign country where language and culture were unfamiliar. In July 2018 after a year of organizing and selling all my belongings, packed my Rav4 with my cats and everything dear to me in a trailer in tow. I embarked on a roadtrip from NJ to Tulum, Mexico.

Within 6 months of moving to Tulum, I established a thriving bakery, gaining intimate knowledge of small business intricacies. After 4 successful years, I closed the physical shop and joined forces with my mother in her Virtual Bookkeeping and Financial Advisory venture, Account Effects.

Proficient in diverse financial facets, from analysis and forecasting to bookkeeping and technology integration, my objective is to empower clients to focus on core business by ensuring their financial operations are efficient and technologically up-to-date, acknowledging the rapid evolution of workplace technology
