Strategic Advisor | Problem-Solver | Relationship-Builder

Kristen Jerome, CPA

Strategic Advisor | Problem-Solver | Relationship-Builder

With 15 years of experience in public accounting—most recently as a Partner at Bauknight Pietras & Stormer—I bring a dynamic blend of strategic insight, operational efficiency, and technical expertise. 

As the youngest elected partner at my firm, I embraced challenges head-on—whether delivering exceptional client service, solving intricate technical issues, or refining internal processes to support rapid growth. My ability to adapt, lead, and execute has allowed me to drive meaningful change and create long-term value for clients and colleagues alike.

At the heart of my work is a passion for connecting with people—clients, colleagues, and the community.  Strong relationships, built on trust and transparency, fuel my ability to communicate complex financial matters in a way that is both clear and actionable. Clients appreciate my candor and sense of humor.

My expertise spans industries and challenges, but my core strength remains the same: the ability to triage and solve problems. I thrive in situations where creative solutions and decisive action are required.

Contact me today to discuss how I can help you prepare for your annual audit, streamline your accounting processes, train your accounting staff in topics ranging from excel skills, driving efficiencies, to managing interpersonal relationships, plan and execute short-term projects, or provide long-range recurring fractional CFO servives.
