Welcome to the CSS Team!

👋🎉 Welcome to the Team! 🎉👋

We’re excited to have 5 new team members at Crawford Smith and Swallow. We would like to introduce you to our first three Barbara Sykes, Kyle Petrovic, and Ibrahim Shahzad. Over the next few days, stop by the dashboard to get to know a couple more of newest team members. 

Barbara Sykes
NF Staff Accountant

Hi, I’m Barb! I’ve been working in private accounting for just about 10 years now. I love T1 season, bring on those receipts!!! I’m happily married to my 2nd husband (Jack). We have no children together but 4 between the two of us. I have four 4-legged babies (2 cats, 2 dogs). I typically spend my down time reading or watching movies with my hubby. I have a very dark sense of humour, so please tell me if I go too far (not everyone likes it). I’m really looking forward to this next exciting chapter in my life.

Kyle Petrovic
PC Co-op Student

Hi everyone! My name is Kyle Petrovic, and I’m a second-year Accounting Co-op Student from Brock University. I’m excited to be joining the team and to apply my school knowledge in a real-world accounting environment. Outside of school and work, I enjoy skiing, golfing, playing chess, and basketball. I’m looking forward to meeting you all and learning from everyone at the CSS team while contributing throughout my co-op term.

Ibrahim Shahzad
NF Co-op Student

Hi everyone, my name is Ibrahim Shahzad. I am a Bachelors of Accounting student attending Brock University, and I am very motivated by learning, improving my skills, and understanding how things work in a practice. I enjoy working in environments where I am able to ask questions and continue to grow. Outside of school and work, I enjoy staying active through going to the gym and playing sports. I also love to travel to different countries to experience new cultures. I am really looking forward to be working at Crawford Smith and Swallow and getting to know the team better. 

To ensure they feel right at home, let’s take a moment to introduce ourselves. Share a bit about your role, your background, and perhaps a fun fact or two. This will not only help us get to know one another, but it will also foster a sense of camaraderie within the team. 

Welcome all to the CSS Team! 🥳
