Building Trust Through Numbers

We've spent over six years helping businesses communicate their financial stories clearly. Sometimes the best presentation isn't the flashiest one — it's the one that makes complex decisions feel manageable.

How We Actually Started

Back in 2019, I was sitting in yet another meeting where brilliant financial analysis was being completely misunderstood. The numbers were solid, but the presentation made everyone's eyes glaze over. That's when it clicked — technical accuracy means nothing if decision-makers can't follow along.

We started altorequiva because too many good financial strategies were getting lost in translation. Small businesses especially needed someone who could bridge that gap between complex analysis and clear communication.

Our first client was a manufacturing company drowning in spreadsheets. Six months later, their board meetings actually finished on time because everyone understood what they were looking at. That's still the kind of transformation that gets us excited.

What Drives Our Work

These aren't just company values we put on the wall. They're the principles that shape every presentation we build and every client relationship we develop.

Clarity Over Complexity

Financial data can be overwhelming. We focus on making information accessible without dumbing it down. Your audience should understand the implications, not just the numbers.

Real Business Context

Every chart and analysis point connects back to actual business decisions. We don't create presentations that look impressive but don't help anyone make better choices.

Long-term Partnerships

Quick fixes rarely work in financial communication. We build relationships with clients who value ongoing improvement in how they share important information with stakeholders.

Senior Financial Strategist

Celeste brings fifteen years of experience from both sides of the table — she's built financial models for startups and sat through countless board presentations as an investment analyst. She knows what works because she's seen what doesn't.

Her approach focuses on understanding your audience first, then building presentations that actually serve their decision-making process. No fancy animations or unnecessary complexity — just clear communication that helps businesses move forward with confidence.

Our Process Philosophy

Every project starts with understanding who needs to make what decisions. Then we work backwards to create presentations that support those specific choices.
