Kristyne Pavlik, MBA, EA
Owner, accountant, and enrolled agent, Kristyne Pavlik, EA operates out of Barrington and Dover, New Hampshire, serving clients from all over the United States. Having graduated from Bryant College in 1988 with a BS in Business Administration and a concentration in Accounting, Kristyne went on to earn her MBA from Sacred Heart University in 1996 and became an Enrolled Agent with the IRS in 2011.
Throughout her career, Kristyne has helped both individuals and businesses with a variety of accounting and tax preparation services. After many years of working with small businesses, she developed a strong passion for offering tax preparation and consulting services for startups and entrepreneurs. Kristyne really likes working with startups because she loves learning about the businesses they are going into and gets great satisfaction from helping them make their dreams a reality.
Kristyne genuinely enjoys forming relationships with her clients and helping them grow their small businesses by working with them to set up record-keeping systems that they can easily follow. She finds that her clients are typically very experienced in their area of business, but they struggle in the areas of finances, business administration, and record-keeping. She understands that for many, these are somewhat foreign and scary concepts, and she aims to help make them less scary.
“Tax Season is truly one of my favorite times of the year! I call it my “10-week family reunion”, where I get to spend an hour or two with each of my “family” members.”
Kristyne grew up in Southern Connecticut, about 45 minutes from New York City, but her “happy place” is in Charlestown, Rhode Island, where her family had a home for 23 years. Kristyne moved to Dover in 2004 and worked as an accountant for The Works in Somersworth for 10 years, before moving to Barrington in 2016. That same year, she became treasurer of the Barrington Library Foundation and a charter member of the Barrington Lions Club International, the largest service organization in the world. She is currently a member of the Rochester Lions Club.
When she’s not preparing taxes or consulting with small businesses on record-keeping matters or volunteering, Kristyne’s ideal day is one spent with any combination of her nieces, and nights are often spent hanging with the cat, watching Hallmark movies.
