Who We Are
Sara Morin-Payne, EA, Owner
Sara, owner of NH Tax & Bookkeeping, LLC, is a QuickBooks ProAdvisor with 20 years of experience she earned from the ground up. She earned her Bachelor's Degree in Accounting from Southern New Hampshire University.
​
Opening her own tax prep and bookkeeping shop has always been a goal for Sara. She finds providing her clients with sound advise, precisely calculated tax and bookkeeping services, and well-organized and timely payroll so rewarding. She loves the challenge a financial puzzle presents, and loves even more the thrill of solving it.
​
When she isn’t in the office, Sara loves working out! She’s a big fan of sports, whether she’s watching the pros near home or traveling around the country watching her kids. In the summer, she’s outside as soon as possible to ATV; but don’t worry, she leaves the adrenaline at home during lake week! Her greatest joy is “making something out of nothing”, whether it’s NH Tax and Bookkeeping, a craft, or finding something happy in everyday life.
Kelly Atkins
Kelly is originally from Sandown, NH. She attended Endicott College in Massachusetts and has now been preparing taxes for 25+ years.
She joined NH Tax and Bookkeeping for the positive and collaborative work environment. Now, she’s the NH Tax and Bookkeeping team’s resident payroll guru and bookkeeping master!
Outside the office, Kelly likes kayaking. She enjoys watching motocross, playing cornhole, walking on the beach, and traveling with family…especially the beach. She also loves hanging out with her sons. One of their favorite things to do is watch football...they’re Patriots fans! She loves to eat anything that her son cooks, because she doesn't have to. Her favorite color is green.
Kelly McPherson, EA
Kelly grew up in Londonderry, NH and for the past 18 years calls Litchfield, NH home with her husband
and two children, William and Sofia and their two dogs, Moose and Winni.
Kelly has been an enrolled agent for 10 years but has been in the business for over two decades. Starting
as a secretary at a tax practice over 20 years ago, she started to cross-train and learn how to prepare tax
returns and began representing clients in front of the IRS to finally receive her Enrolled Agents
certificate. She ran her own successful business for the past 5 years helping well over 50 customers from
Massachusetts, New Hampshire, and Maine. With her kids now older, she wanted to become part of a
larger practice and get back into an office environment. Kelly previously worked with Sara years ago
while working together at another tax firm and is very excited to join her and the rest of the team at NH
Tax and Bookkeeping.
In her free time, Kelly remains very active in the community and has a few activities she is very
passionate about including dance and personal fitness. She has been dancing since age 3 and instructing
since 15, both of which she continues to do to this day. When not working or dancing, Kelly likes to
travel with her husband and kids. She enjoys being outside in the summer sitting poolside or lakeside,
reading and spending time with her friends and family.
Christine Vaillancourt
Christine grew up in Litchfield, NH…in fact, her parents still live in her childhood home, just three miles from her house!
She learned accounting in high school, and took care of the books when her husband and his brother started a landscaping/snow removal business. However, her first career was in education. She has a degree in Early Childhood Education, and ran a preschool for twelve years (also running their books). She decided to apply for a local tax office after public kindergarten was instituted, and moved to NH Tax and Bookkeeping at Sara’s invite.
Christine has been married to her husband Daniel for over thirty years. They have two daughters, Samantha and Sierra. Her and her family love to travel; they visit a new Caribbean island every year! Some of her other favorites are pool days on her summer Fridays off, walking her dog Molson, shopping, and getting dinner with her friends.
Maurissa Fluet
Maurissa is a Litchfield native, and Sara’s sister. She developed an interest in accounting when Sara entered the field. While her first degree is in Biochemistry from the University of New Hampshire, she wanted the ability to join a field with an option to work from home while raising her children. Sara always planned on opening her own business, so an accounting degree seemed like a good idea to work together. Maurissa got her accounting degree from Merrimack College; she has now been a bookkeeper on-and-off for almost a decade.
She joined NH Tax and Bookkeeping to work with Sara, Christine and Kelly, where she’s motivated everyday to learn something new. She’s a mom to 4 amazing kids and loves sharing in their lives and interests, from ATVs to video games. She also enjoys spending time outdoors with her husband and finding new places to visit and explore. She coaches her younger daughter's softball team, and adores the gym. Ask her about her OrangeTheory records!
Victoria Fluet
Victoria is the Marketing Manager for NH Tax and Bookkeeping. She runs the Facebook, helps with email communication…and wrote these bios! She’s a full-time
student at the University of New Hampshire. Dual-majoring in Marketing and Journalism, she does her best work when she can be creative with a purpose.
Victoria started working with NH Tax and Bookkeeping about two years ago during her freshman year. She has loved watching the company grow, and gained lots of valuable experience from working with the NH Tax team and fans.
She’s had many other interesting roles the past couple years: she interned in Disney World for a semester, and worked with the Portsmouth chamber of commerce over the summer. When she isn’t working, Victoria loves anything wordy. She’s a writer, and an avid reader. She’s involved in a bunch of college clubs, and is always up for a concert or weekend trip!
