Accounting should not be a roadblock in your business!

Brightly Consultants, LLC is a woman-owned business whose founder built her career in public accounting.

Her years of experience in a wide variety of industries gave her insight to common issues that clients encounter. Driven by her desire to provide a seamless client experience, our founder takes a tailored approach to helping clients navigate business obstacles. Brightly Consultants was born with the mindset that accounting should not be a roadblock in your business, but rather a powerful tool to interpret what you have done and where you are headed. Brightly Consultants aims to partner with you in your business, not only to help you problem solve but also to help you scale and grow.

Carla Perez

Our founder, Carla Perez, built Brightly Consultants on core pillars of professional values and ethics that she is most proud of as an accounting professional. Integrity, client partnership, collaborative synergy, and community reinvestment.

Brightly Consultants founder, Carla Perez, graduated from CSU Fresno with an accounting degree in 2017. She was recruited by a large regional firm in her final semester and embarked on a long journey into public accounting. Her background was built in tax, some audit, and operational accounting- in which she found her true passion. Her well rounded accounting background gives her great insight into the different challenges a business will face. She has a lot of experience in the agriculture, manufacturing, retail, medical, real estate and restaurant industries, ranging from micro- up through mid-sized companies.

Carla thrives on building meaningful relationships with clients and providing unique and creative solutions for a multitude of business issues, not just accounting. Her relentless drive to help clients find the right solution is what sets her apart. Her natural empathy of treating her clients business as if it were her own is what helps her anticipate potential issues and give good guidance and advice.

As a Fresno native, Carla has watched Fresno grow from a small town to the ever expanding epicenter of the Central Valley that it is today. Fresno is home to Carla and where she is raising her children. As so, she is determined to enrich and reinvest into the community.

Carla is driven by her joy in being of service to others, and her philanthropic work is currently serving as a volunteer and supporting the Board of Directors for Medical Ministries International, a local non-profit making a global impact from right here in Fresno, California.

Carla loves to support small new local businesses, support local commerce such as pop ups and vendor fairs, participate in women focused networking groups and events, and volunteer her time in free accounting seminars to small businesses through various non-profit organizations.

Our Core Values

Integrity Focused

Brightly Consultants is anchored on strong professional ethics and integrity. This not only sets the standard of how we service clients, but also helps us find like minded clients. We pride ourselves not only on the work we put out, but the quality and caliber of our extraordinary clientele.

Client Partnership

Brightly Consultants takes a meticulous approach during the client onboarding process to get a full understanding of the client and how their business operates. It is our partnership approach that allows us to serve our clients best interests, not just provide a transactional service to our clients. Brightly may not always be the best choice for a client, and we pride ourselves in caring about our clients enough to refer them to a better choice if that’s the case.

Collaborative Synergy

Brightly Consultants prides ourselves on the collaborative synergy we maintain with our clients. Our goal is never to bog you down with never ending requests and questions but to take a proactive approach working with you to stay ahead of potential problems and efficiently navigate through current obstacles. Working with Brightly should ease your level of responsibility with accounting, not increase it- and this is the approach we take with how we work with you.

Community ReInvestment & Enrichment

Brightly Consultants takes a strong stance in that you have to be the change you want to see. If Fresno does not have “enough to do” then we want to be part of the reason why our kids always have many options to choose from. Our founder believes that while it is important to honor the agriculture background Fresno was founded on, expanding our local economy and job market is what enriches and expands a community. We aim to help the people who create the jobs to thrive and scale. We also believe that philanthropic ventures are some of the best methods to help underserved communities and causes.
