About Danielle Ruther

I am a tech-savvy business manager who loves working with wellness professionals, technology, nonprofits, and neurodivergent entrepreneurs. My ability to learn rapidly is my superpower.#neurodiversity #ADHD My passion for health, wellness and systems has significantly influenced how I do business and how I look at people and organizations. I love helping organizations understand how our health, organizational health, and systems affect organizational efficiency, profits, and expenses. I started working in health & wellness industries in 2013 and fell in love with supporting wellness professionals who taught me to live better. As I learned more, my life changed more, and I kept getting deeper into supporting healers. I learned the power of integrative medicine and love guiding families to wellness by connecting them to integrative professionals. I love supporting entrepreneurs, executives, and nonprofits so they can do more of what they love instead of struggling to run the business.I see the world through the lens of finance and systems and love helping everyone understand the story behind the numbers. I love financial analysis and solving complex business problems. I have experience working with financial statements, payroll, general ledgers, journal entries, reconciliations, budgeting and forecasting, asset management, auditing, and reporting. I have extensive non-profit accounting and board experience and keep current on non-profit law and accounting changes. Many professionals get overwhelmed by the parts of running a business that don\'t generate income or feed their passion. I help executives by taking on the business or running a business while they work. Worried about outsourcing? I remind all my clients that.A good plan today is better than a perfect plan tomorrow!I am seeking opportunities in NW Montana area or remotely and would love to connect!
