OUR TEAM
At CVW Accounting, we are an in-house team of highly skilled CPAs and accounting professionals serving interior designers from coast to coast. Together, we bring extensive industry expertise and professional insight to our clients. We are driven by performance while staying true to our core values of respect, integrity, and communication.
We understand that not all interior designers face the same challenges or have the same business objectives. We ask questions and more importantly, we listen to you, our clients, to determine how and where we can add the most value. We align our value-added services with your goals in mind and partner you with a Bookkeeper and an Accounting Manager who best complement your business.
Our Bookkeepers manage your day-to-day financial operations while our Accounting Managers provide you with high-level financial support and advisory. We provide our team with in-house training and streamline our workflows to seamlessly assist one another as needed. As your partner, we make certain you are never left without the proper and timely support you need to run your business.
Caroline Van Wassenhove, CPA and Founder of CVW Accounting
Helping you transform your business
ABOUT ME
My journey to becoming a CPA began in the Audit & Tax industries, which allowed me several opportunities throughout my career. I was fortunate to work in various industries, but it wasn’t until I joined a Fortune 500 Residential Developer that I realized my enthusiasm for the Construction industry. I appreciated its physical beauty as well as its complexities. This eventually and naturally led me into the world of interior design. While I soon realized the similarities between the two industries, I was more fascinated by their differences. And so with this, my passion for interior design evolved and CVW Accounting was born.
As founder of CVW Accounting, I now have the privilege of working closely with our team of professionals to serve our talented clients across the country. Together, we provide interior designers with high value services, industry expertise, and personalized attention.

ABOUT ME
My journey to becoming a CPA began with diverse experiences in both public and private accounting, spanning various industries. In 2005, I embarked on my accounting career in the real estate industry, which provided me with invaluable insights into the inner workings of small businesses and sparked my interest in both commercial and residential design. Over the years, I developed a strong passion for the intricacies of business operations and financial management and found I most enjoyed supporting and working with creatives and entrepreneurs. This ultimately led me to join CVW Accounting in 2019, where I now have the privilege of working alongside our team of industry experts helping interior designers with the financial side of the business so they can focus on what they do best – creating beautiful spaces.
