Meet the Team: Lisa Collier

Lisa Collier My Two Cents Accounting

What do you do at My Two Cents?

A bookkeeper – ensures your books are kept up to date and balanced.

How long have you been with My Two Cents?

January 2023

What do you love about being an all female team?

This is my first experience working in an all-female work place,  I’m looking forward to getting to know the ladies as we are all from different backgrounds and have different experiences which we all bring our own uniqueness to the team. 

 If you weren't doing your current job, what would you like to do? 

I like the idea of opening a desert and cocktail bar.

Have you learned anything interesting through your work at My Two Cents? 

I’m still finding my feet with lots to learn, however I have learnt that even though i work remotely from the other team members that the distance doesn’t matter as long as you’ve got a great support and networking team on board and are in a great working environment like MTC offers it can be successfully achieved. This transition has been a breeze.

What's your favourite guilty pleasure? 

I enjoy baking cakes and biscuits so with this of course “sampling” them too with a good Gin on hand.

What's your current Netflix recommendation? 

Virgin River, I love it!
