Who we are

The careful work behind a confident business.

Carolus Advisory was founded by Carlos Ortiz for owners who would rather build their business than chase their books.

Founder

Carlos Ortiz

I learned the books from inside the businesses that depend on them. Before Carolus Advisory, I ran two construction companies in Las Vegas — VIP Building Co. and Eminence Construction — and I hold a Nevada B-2 General Building Contractor license.

I've spent more than eight years in construction finance: WIP schedules, AIA G702/G703 progress billing, percentage-of-completion reporting and certified payroll.

I founded Carolus Advisory in San Diego to bring that experience to owners who would rather build their business than chase their books.

How we work

The quiet discipline behind every good decision.

Good financial work shouldn't be loud. It should be precise, discreet, and dependable — present when you need it, invisible when you don't.

i

Precision

Every figure tied out, every period closed properly. Accuracy isn't a feature — it's the baseline.

ii

Discretion

Your numbers stay your numbers. We work quietly, carefully, and with complete confidentiality.

iii

Partnership

Not a vendor you chase, but a steady partner who knows your business and answers when you call.

Let's put your numbers in order.

Tell us a little about your business and what you need. We'll take it from there.
