About Us
Blazej & Associates was founded by Cheryl Blazej in July 2006. Cheryl honed her accounting and financial analysis skills after college by working for several Fortune 500 companies and small businesses. She realized small business owners could benefit from embracing some of the corporate accounting practices she knew and decided to open her own accounting firm to share that expertise. Over the past 15 years the firm has grown to 18 staff members and over 168 clients with responsibility for accounting oversight for more than $230 million. A good portion of our recurring revenue comes from providing back-office support for CPAs and we’re good at it. We don’t prepare tax returns and we never will, so CPAs trust us with their clients.
