Meet the Owner

I’m Danielle Lohbeck. I’m a mom of 2 wonderful and energetic kids, a wife, and a bookkeeping professional. After graduating from the College of St. Benedict in 2006 with degrees in Accounting and Spanish, I spent 15 years with a Big 4 public accounting firm serving multinational clients. One of my favorite parts of that job was working with my clients – not the companies, but the people – to understand their pain points and how my colleagues and I could help. 

In 2021, I chose to step back from my professional life to stay home with my then 8-month-old son and reevaluate and rebalance my own professional and personal goals. Two years and one more kid later, Get Balanced Bookkeeping was born out of my desire to get back to serving clients using my accounting background but doing so in a way that more directly improves the lives of my individual clients.

There could be many reasons you are looking for a bookkeeping professional: you may dread doing it yourself, want help getting organized or useful information, or just need to get something off your plate to free up time to focus more on your business operations or your personal life – or both! My goal with serving you would be to eliminate the stress of bookkeeping and provide you with complete and accurate (balanced!) financial information about your business while also freeing up your time (and maybe emotional energy) to enjoy the life you have built for yourself.
