Hi, I'm Danielle Parks—And I Quit My Corporate Job to Build Something That Actually Matters.
After spending over 15 years in corporate accounting, I left corporate to build Parks Projects NJ full-time. This is my only source of income, which means your success is how I provide for my family. I'm all-in on your results.
MY STORY
After 15+ years managing millions in cash flow, processing wire transfers, and reconciling accounts for Fortune 500 companies, I kept seeing the same problem:
The people who needed financial help the most were the ones who couldn't get it.
Small business owners were scrambling with messy books and missing tax deductions. Nonprofits were overwhelmed by fund accounting and audit prep. Entrepreneurs were overpaying the IRS because they didn't know what questions to ask.
And the "big" accounting firms? They were either too expensive, too impersonal, or too busy to care.
I knew I could do better.
So I left. I leaped. And I built Parks Projects NJ—a boutique accounting, bookkeeping, and tax firm where clients actually matter.
MY APPROACH
Patience, Precision, and Purpose
I approach financial strategy the way I approach hunting: with patience, precision, and purpose.
I don't rush. I don't cut corners. I listen to your goals, understand your challenges, and build strategies that actually work for you—not what some cookie-cutter package says you should buy.
Because here's the thing: Parks Projects NJ is my only source of income. I bet everything on this business. That means I'm 100% committed to your success—because when you grow, I grow.
You're not just another client number. You're a partner. And I'm in this for the long haul.

WHAT MAKES ME DIFFERENT
Why Choose Parks Projects NJ Over Every Other Accountant?
1. This Is My Only Source of Income
I left my corporate job to build Parks Projects NJ full-time. This isn't a side hustle or hobby. It's how I provide for my family. That means I'm 100% committed to your success—because your growth is my growth.
2. You Work Directly With Me
No hand-offs. No junior staff. No disappearing acts. From bookkeeping to taxes to strategic consulting, you work directly with me. I answer your calls, respond to your emails, and show up when you need me.
3. I Remove the Stigma Around Money
Your books are a mess? You haven't filed taxes in years? Do you feel ashamed about your financial situation?
Stop. I've seen it all, and I don't judge.
Through my work with Keys to Prosperity and my clients, I've learned that financial shame keeps people stuck. They avoid their books, hide from tax problems, and suffer in silence.
That ends here. I help you face it, fix it, and move forward with confidence. No judgment. No shame. Just honest guidance and real solutions.
4. I'm a Strategic Thinker—Not Just a Number Cruncher
I don't just record transactions and file returns; I also provide expert guidance and support. I help you understand what the numbers mean and how to use them to make better decisions.
Do you need to know if you can afford to hire? I'll show you the cash flow projections.
Wondering which business structure saves you the most on taxes? I'll break down the options in plain English.
Do you want to know if that new project is profitable? I'll create a budget model for you.
5. Virtual Services Nationwide
Based in New Jersey, serving clients across the United States. All meetings are virtual, so you get expert support without ever leaving your office.
6. Deep Experience Across Industries
I've worked with Fortune 500 companies, small businesses, nonprofits, and individuals. Whether you're a one-person consulting firm or a community organization with a $2M budget, I understand your world—and I know how to help.

TRANSPARENCY

EMPATHY
I know what it's like to feel stressed about money. I meet you where you are, not where you "should" be.
