Shari Maynard

Principal of Knoxville Office, Co-Founder

Shari Maynard is the co-founder of Whitestone Accounting & Tax Inc. and the leader of the firm’s Tennessee operation. Her journey in bookkeeping began nearly 40 years ago in her father’s music store, where she learned the fundamentals of balancing accounts, tracking inventory, and keeping a small business financially healthy. Those early days shaped her lifelong commitment to accuracy, organization, and service — values that still define her work today.

Over the decades, Shari has built a deep well of experience across bookkeeping, payroll, and small business financial systems. She is highly proficient in QuickBooks and has spent years helping business owners clean up their books, streamline their processes, and gain clarity around their numbers. Clients trust her because she brings both technical skill and a calm, steady presence to every situation.

Shari’s approach is rooted in listening first, understanding the full story, and then guiding clients with clear, practical steps they can follow with confidence. Under her leadership, Whitestone’s Tennessee office has become known for its reliability, responsiveness, and thoughtful, values driven guidance.

Whether she’s supporting a small business owner navigating growth or helping a retiree simplify their tax strategy, Shari brings the same mindset to every relationship: serve with integrity, communicate clearly, and help people steward their resources wisely.
