Meet Your Profit Partner

You are not just looking for a CPA. You’re looking for someone who understands the weight of building a business, the blood it takes to scale it, and the strategy required to keep it profitable.

I’m Nicole Gillyard, CPA, and for 30 years I’ve been the behind-the-scenes advisor helping entrepreneurs, high-income earners, and CEOs build profitable businesses and generational wealth.

But my story didn’t start with spreadsheets—it started with small businesses and community.

Our Mission Statement


At By The Numberz CPA, our mission is simple: Turn businesses into profitable, bankable, million-dollar enterprises.



We are a boutique accounting and strategy firm built for founders who refuse to guess their way to success.

We don’t just “do the books.”


We engineer profitable businesses, one strategic move at a time.

My Story: From Numbers to Neighborhoods to Nation-Building

I’ve spent my entire life watching marginalized businesses grind twice as hard with half the resources. I saw brilliant entrepreneurs losing profits, overpaying taxes, signing bad leases, and running million-dollar ideas on broken systems.


And I knew I could change that.



By The Numberz CPA was born out of a desire to give entrepreneurs the financial truth, clarity, and strategy they never had access to. But as my work grew, I could feel something bigger calling me—a vision that stretched beyond my desk.

How C-Park Business Hub Was Born


For years, I watched small businesses struggle because rent was too high, landlords didn’t care, or they had no access to the tools they needed to grow.
I watched entrepreneurs—especially Black and brown entrepreneurs—getting priced out of their own neighborhoods.


So when the opportunity came to purchase the Temple Avenue building, I didn’t buy a building…


I bought a vision.


A vision of affordable offices.
A vision of coworking space for real entrepreneurs, not the “tech bro” version.
A vision of podcast studios where our voices could be amplified.
A vision of workshops, mentorship, access to capital, and a place where small business owners could actually belong.

C-Park Business Hub is the physical home for entrepreneurs who have been overlooked but refuse to be counted out.



And By The Numberz CPA?
It’s the financial engine that powers it all.
