Meet the Key Accountancy Service Team
Karen Lewis
FCCA, BSc, Xero certified advisor
Favourite mathematical formula: Differential equations and sound waves.
The best thing about working with figures: Figures are black and white – they are either right or wrong with no in between and there’s nothing better than balancing a bank account.
Pet hate: The month of January, specifically 31 January is the worst day of the year
Pet love: Introducing clients to Xero and see them realise how much easier bookkeeping really can be. Ticking the right boxes on the correct forms to bring everything together for the best outcome.
In her spare time, Karen enjoys walking, rugby (can you believe she used to play in one of the first ladies teams in Norfolk in her childhood?), visiting the theatre, watching Wimbledon, and cooking anything spicy.
Stephen Lewis
Level II AAT, working towards a Xero-certified qualification
The best thing about working with figures: Mathematics is in the blood, so much so, Stephen passed his GCSE one year early
Pet hate: Too much spicy food (Karen has a habit of insisting on it)
Pet love: Darts, darts and more darts – four local teams to be precise
In his spare time, Stephen is a fan of many sports, including walking and cycling. He enjoys listening to music (proper music with traditional instruments) and insists that cooking needs to be accompanied by a glass of wine.
Kelly Mitchell
Level 2 AAT/ Working towards Level 3 AAT/ Xero Certified
Favourite Mathematical Equation: Trigonometry – reminds her of the good old days back in high school
The best thing about working with figures: Maths is not subjective – you are either right or wrong. There are no grey areas and the feeling you get when you are right is worth every mistake you make in the process.
Pet hate: Fish – she cannot stand the smell or the taste
Pet love: Literally her pet – her dog, Larry
In her spare time, Kelly loves adventuring the great outdoors with her dog, playing tennis at the local tennis club and going to the theatre. She was once a bit of an actress herself in a previous life and loves everything about performing!
Jane Sedrak
Studied at the University of Life
Jane has worked on the admin side for accountants/financial planners all her working life.
Pet hate: Bad spelling and grammar
Pet love: Travel – preferably the adventurous kind! Highlights have included backpacking around Australia, climbing Mount Kilimanjaro, white water rafting the Zambezi river and trekking to Timbuktu. Jane even met her Egyptian husband while hiking in the Sinai Desert!
In her spare time, Jane helps to run the local Scout Group, sings in a choir, plays tennis and enjoys camping and watersports with her family.
