Meet the Founders of ValiArk & Co

A happy family of four sitting on a bed, with a mother, father, young boy, and newborn baby, indoors with natural light and a cozy background.

The Atkinson’s

We’re a husband-and-wife team with a heart for small business owners — and a passion for helping them gain financial clarity, confidence, and peace of mind.

Originally from a small town, we now call Kansas City home, where we're raising our family and building ValiArk & Co to serve businesses just like yours.

Matthew holds a double degree in Finance and Accounting and brings extensive experience from the banking industry. Over the years, he’s helped countless business owners navigate financial challenges, optimize cash flow, and build long-term strategies for growth. His greatest fulfillment? Watching clients move from financial stress to financial strength.

Ashley

Ashley earned her Master’s in Education and spent 9 years in the classroom before transitioning into bookkeeping.
