John Cordeal

With nearly four decades of hands-on accounting experience, John knows that exceptional financial management—much like a good day on the golf course or an epic trip through Alaska—requires meticulous precision, steady focus and a "balance-the-checkbook-to-the-penny" mindset.

Today, John serves as an Accounting & Bookkeeping Specialist on our team, managing day-to-day transactions and financial reporting for a diverse client roster. When he isn’t ensuring every ledger balances down to the exact cent, you can usually find him on the golf course (playing to a solid 16.7 index), bike riding, working out in the garden, or traveling across the country—from California to Alaska—to visit his three sons with his wife.

• 35+ Years of Accounting Leadership: Beginning in 1987, John spent 15 years managing accounting for his family’s plastics manufacturing business before serving nearly two decades as Financial Manager for a prominent St. Louis produce company.

• Full-Cycle Bookkeeping & Transactional Care: Specializing in precision financial management, he handles comprehensive bookkeeping, account reconciliations and transactional reporting with uncompromised accuracy for our firm's clients.
