About us
Two business owners.
One accelerator.
Our story
Built from experience, not textbooks
We’re Lorenda and Jason — married, both business owners, and now partners in Berryhill Consulting.
Lorenda spent over a decade in corporate finance and healthcare operations — budgeting for 32 business entities at one of the largest health systems in the country, building COVID-era reporting solutions under impossible deadlines, and developing revenue forecasting models from scratch. Then she took everything she’d learned and bet on herself — building Berryhill Consulting’s accounting practice from the ground up, growing a remote team servicing clients in six states, and eventually selling it. She holds a degree in Business Administration from Oklahoma State and an MBA in Healthcare Data Analytics.
Jason is a computer engineer out of Oklahoma State who’s spent his career building software. He took over as CEO and owner of Straxis, a mobile and web application development company, in 2020 — and still runs it today. He knows what it takes to build technology that actually works for a business.
Berryhill exists because we kept having the same conversation — with friends, colleagues, and business owners who were stuck, burning cash, or sitting on a great idea with no roadmap. We’d help where we could, and eventually we realized: this is the work we want to do. Not as a side conversation. As a business.
So we built one — and we structured it the only way that made sense to us: with skin in the game.
Our expertise
What we bring to the table
Finance & operations
Financial modeling, cash flow strategy, pricing, budgeting, operational process design, and the kind of back-office cleanup that turns chaos into something you can actually manage.
Technology & development
Tech stack evaluation, mobile and web application development, system architecture, security, and digital infrastructure. Real technical guidance from someone who builds production software every day.
Strategy & growth
Go-to-market planning, competitive positioning, organizational development, and the big-picture strategic thinking that ties finance, operations, and technology together.
Marketing & positioning
Brand strategy, market analysis, and the messaging work that helps customers understand why you exist. We've done this for our own businesses.
Our approach
We’re not the consultants in suits who hand you a binder and disappear
We roll up our sleeves. We get into your spreadsheets, your systems, your operations. We’ll tell you what’s broken, help you fix it, and stick around to make sure it stays fixed.
We take equity because we believe in the businesses we work with — and because it keeps us honest. When our payoff depends on your success, you’ll never wonder whose interests we’re serving.
We’re building our portfolio one partnership at a time. We’re not trying to scale to 50 clients. We’re trying to make a real difference for the businesses we take on — and earn results we’re both proud of.
Our philosophy
Do the work. Tell the truth.
Share the outcome.
We don’t take on a business unless we believe we can help. We don’t promise results we can’t deliver. And we don’t collect a check unless we’ve earned it.
