20 Years Financial Leadership | 7 Years as CFO | Strategic Business Consultant

About David Carlisle, CPA, CMA

After spending 20 years in financial leadership roles, including 7 years as a CFO, I founded Brightline Advisory Services to help business owners build companies that thrive systematically rather than just survive day-to-day.

My experience includes leading finance teams, facilitating strategic planning, implementing business operating systems, and helping leadership teams align around common goals. I understand the unique challenges of growing businesses because I've been in the executive seat making those same decisions.

Every growing business reaches a point where informal systems need to become systematic processes. The question is whether you'll address this proactively or wait until problems force your hand.
