Your Financial Maven LLC

Maven. Passion. Diligence.

I am a Certified Public Accounting (CPA) and Independent Life Insurance Agent . I am passionate about being an Accountant for over 25 years. I could talk all day about financial empowerment and how it is so important to have a basic understanding of personal and business finances. My journey into accounting started in my high school years but was solidified during my college years at the University of Pittsburgh. I graduated from the University of Pittsburgh with a BS in Business/Accounting and began my accounting career working as an auditor for the PA Department of Revenue. Since then, I have held a variety of accounting jobs in the public, private, nonprofit and government sectors. In 2013, I decided to go out on my own and created the Mittman Besnoff Agency where I work with individuals and small businesses in preparing tax returns, accounting services, life insurance needs and financial education empowerment.

I continue to educate and expand my business knowledge through various Master Level College Certificate Programs: Gratz College, Cornell University, and Lebanon Valley College. I received the following certificates: Nonprofit Management, Women in Entrepreneurship, and Leadership & Ethics. In addition, I continue with my professional education for both my CPA and Independent Life Insurance licenses on an annual basis. I am also certified as a Quickbooks Online ProAdvisor and Freshbooks Accountant.

In 2022, I decided to evolve my business and I am now known as Your Financial Maven LLC. I am so proud to be a Solopreneur, Podcaster and Woman-Owned Business. In the Spring of 2022, I decided to add to my business and get into the world of Podcasting. I am part of the inaugural class of the Seneca Women Podcast Academy along with iHeart Media. I am so excited to be launching my Your Financial Maven podcast in the Fall of 2022.

I am a Mom, Wife, and Community Leader who is compassionate, caring and enjoys life. My husband and my boys keep me balanced between work and personal life. When I am not working, you can find me playing with our furbaby, at the beach, and spending time with cherished family and friends.

As Your Financial Maven, I want to empower the choices you make to be financially secure.
