Who We Are
Meet the Founder
Julie Barrett is a CPA and finance executive with deep experience leading accounting teams at complex companies including Empower, Lincoln Financial Group and Munich Re. She has helped organizations streamline accounting processes, modernize finance systems, and build reporting that leaders can actually use—all with a focus on building a sustainable finance foundation that can anticipate and plan for what’s next.
BrightAccounting was founded to bring that same approach to growing businesses—shaping financial operations that are understandable, manageable, and able to keep up with business and regulatory changes. It’s built around the values that have always guided her career: partnership, integrity, and a fierce commitment to doing what’s right for the businesses she serves.
