With more than a decade of accounting and financial management experience, Melissa Marshall founded Marshall Van Zandt Virtual Controller & Accounting Solutions to bring structure, accuracy, and insight to small businesses and nonprofits. Her career began in public accounting where she developed a strong foundation in audits, compliance, and financial reporting across multiple industries. Melissa later served as Controller for Arrowhead Lake Association, a multimillion-dollar nonprofit, where she managed complex financial operations, budgeting, and board reporting.

These experiences shaped her practical, analytical approach to helping organizations achieve financial clarity. Today, she combines that controller-level expertise with modern, cloud-based systems to deliver bookkeeping, financial reporting, and fractional controller services that help clients make informed, confident decisions about their future.

Our goal is simple — to make your number work for you through clear reporting, streamlined systems, and calm financial confidence.
