FINANCIAL & OPERATIONS CONSULTING — PROVIDENCE, RI

Financial clarity,
built in layers.

Nácar & Ledger is named for mother-of-pearl — a material formed one careful layer at a time until, years later, it catches the light. That's the same discipline I bring to your books.

The person
behind the practice

Arif Shurdho

I'm a Providence-based bookkeeper and financial & operations consultant with more than two decades of full-charge accounting experience — from multi-entity real estate portfolios to small businesses just getting their footing. But the discipline behind that work actually started underwater. I was part of the first group worldwide to earn the PADI Research Diver certification, and spent years as a science research diver on an artificial reef restoration program — watching something unremarkable become extraordinary one careful, deliberate layer at a time. Nácar — mother-of-pearl — is built exactly that way. So are good books.

That's the standard behind every ledger this practice touches: precise where it counts, patient enough to get it right, and never condescending about it. It's why Nácar & Ledger exists for the businesses that often get overlooked — first-time owners building without a financial playbook or family wealth behind them, creators and multi-platform earners piecing together income from five different places, and small, community-rooted practices running lean without a finance team — who deserve bookkeeping built with that same care.

The same discipline scales the other direction too. Multi-entity structures, intercompany transfers between LLCs, shareholder loans that need to be documented like the debt they are, real estate transactions where a single closing touches half a dozen accounts at once — this is the accounting most bookkeepers wave off to "someone more specialized." It's where this practice actually lives.

This practice carries forward two decades of the same discipline, previously operating as BatemanBryce. Same standards, same person — a name that finally reflects who I'm building it for.
