Who We Are
Meet Our Awesome Team
Ellen M. Crowell, E.A.
Founder & CEO
Ellen graduated from Penn State Brandywine campus with her degree in Accounting. After passing a three-part comprehensive IRS test covering individual and business tax returns, she became an enrolled agent, allowing her to represent her clients in certain tax matters. Enrolled agent status is the highest credential the IRS awards. Individuals who obtain this elite status must adhere to ethical standards and complete continuing education credits every three years. This means Ellen stays current on the newest tax law developments and reform.
Since becoming an E.A. her career has focused on Public Accounting for a myriad of clientele in a wide variety of industries. In 2009, Ellen had the opportunity to open her own practice in Kennett Square, so she could work closer to home and serve her community, while she and her husband raised their three daughters. Premier Tax continues to flourish to this day, where they support the businesses and residents of Kennett Square, by relieving them of their tax stress.
Carolyn Ward
Accountant
Carolyn graduated in 2006 with her bachelor’s degree in education from Kutztown University. In 2011, she began working part-time for her aunt at Premier Tax as an office assistant. She made the switch to being a full-time employee in 2015 when she left her job working with children on the Autism spectrum as a classroom aide.
Since making that switch, she has interned under Ellen learning the skills necessary to support their clients’ needs. Carolyn’s daily job duties focus on Quickbooks data entry for their clients, both businesses and individuals. She is proficient in Quickbooks desktop and Quickbooks Online versions, using each on a daily basis to provide the financial information needed by their clients. While it is not her main responsibility, Carolyn is in charge of the payroll services that Premier Tax offers to their small and medium sized business clients. She is an integral part of the tax preparation process every spring, and is able to assist Ellen so that returns can be completed and filed in a timely manner.
