MEET NANCY LEWIS-MOORE
ACCOUNTING, TAXES & BOOKKEEPING
Hello! I am Nancy Lewis-Moore. I am a business and personal budget builder and financial strategist. I love to help people with their juggling acts and most importantly help them from dropping the balls with their finances! I know it is tough out there and as an entrepreneurial mother of 3, I also know that we all have our own unique financial circus to manage whether it is personal income, business or both.
Working with the public in our western community of Cochrane over the last couple of years, I have learned from so many that it is often difficult to know where to start taking control of your finances and spending. That is where I am a creative pro. I love to hunt through numbers and statements to find where you can save and how you can budget more effectively. From tax savings, to investigating interest rates, income and output analysis and even recommendations on costing and inventory control, I can manifest a plan to implement lasting change and even find spare change!
From 1998 to 2010, I lived and worked in England, where I obtained my CIMA designation in 2004 (Chartered Institute of Management Accountants England and Wales), AAT diploma in 2002 (Association of Accounting Technicians), Bookkeeping Certificate 1998. Knowledge of tax laws and experience as a business analyst, brought me over to Canada where I continued working for SAIT as Senior Business and Financial Analyst for six years.
In July 2018, I decided to put my experience and education (aka my assets) to work and offer bookkeeping, budget building, and accounting and financial services. Working collectively with my clients, I exercise a calculated and methodical approach to sorting their bean jars and managing long term solutions. My experiences thus far have helped me build a very amicable relationship with the CRA, the AGLC as well as seek debt relief in some serious financial mismanagement situations for clients.

MEET KAREN ALLISON
MARKETING LEAD
Hi! I grew up in small town central Alberta and spent my childhood figure skating in the winter, playing ball in the spring, and attending camp in the summers. After completing high school, I relocated to Edmonton and attended NAIT where I received a Business Administration, Marketing diploma.
My love for the sport of figure skating turned into a part-time coaching career while working full-time in marketing and communications. Work moved my husband and I north, and in 2005, we relocated to Cochrane from Fort McMurray.
Our move to Cochrane brought us two beautiful children and I have been fortunate enough to stay home, raise my family, and coach figure skating and power skating. We live on an acreage NW of Cochrane with four cats, 18 laying hens (aka Karen’s Happy Hens), and a rooster.
I am passionate about all thing’s health and wellness; I’m a yoga teacher and I love to spend time with my family and friends doing activities like skating, skiing, hiking, biking, paddle boarding and camping.
I’m thrilled to join Lisa and this amazing group of women! You can contact Karen at [email protected]
MEET ALECIA FOUND
INSURANCE LEAD
Hi! My name is Alecia Found and I am one of the newest additions to the Ellements Group. I am currently working on completing my Bachelor of Business Administration Degree from Mount Royal University in Calgary. Going forward, I plan to pursue my certification in Financial Planning.
I spent my early years living in Canmore, where I grew to love the outdoors. I enjoy hiking, skiing, and camping among many other outdoor activities. My family and I moved to Cochrane nearing the start of high school where I spent the remainder of my teenage years. Later, I moved to Calgary with my now fiancé where we lived for five years before deciding we wanted to come back to Cochrane and lay down roots. We bought our first home here three years where we live with our two cats and cute puppy. We love travelling to hot destinations, and try to get away as often as possible.
I look forward to what the future holds, and am excited to be a part of the team of women working at the Ellements Group! You can contact Alecia at [email protected]
MEET ANGI GERRIE
PARAPLANNER & TAX LEAD
Hi! My name is Angi Gerrie and I am very happy to be a part of the Ellements Group. I grew up in Sandy, Utah where I met and married my husband. We had our first child and then moved to Cochrane, Alberta in 2008, before adding 3 more kids! These days I am fully immersed in my “Busy Mom Era”, shuttling kids around to all of their sports and activities, as well as working part time as a school bus driver for the last 11 years. When I get a few minutes of alone time, I love hiding away to finish a good book, watching documentaries, or getting outside to enjoy nature. I am well versed in juggling schedules, running errands, keeping my people organized, and am so excited to use these skills at Ellements Group as an Assistant. I am already learning so much about the financial world from Lisa and her team!

MEET BEVERLEY MOORHOUSE
EXECUTIVE COORDINATOR
Hello, my name is Beverley and I am a recent addition to Ellements Group as Executive Coordinator. I am originally from Nottingham in the UK, but I am happy to call Cochrane home.
My career has been spent either in administration or working one-on-one with others. I spent time working in the British Civil Service before making the jump into the not-for-profit sector, working for the UK’s largest eating disorder charity. It was while working in this environment that I decided to train as a Psychotherapist. Upon graduation, I worked on the national helpline counselling many people from different walks of life. Eventually, I left to set up my own private practice where I successfully ran my own business for 18 years walking alongside those enduring difficult life situations.
In 2010, it was time for a new adventure! My family – my husband, daughter, one cat and I – immigrated to Canada, settling in Cochrane.
But the journey doesn’t end there! I have always loved creating things. In 2019, I took my first calligraphy and painting course. Since then, I have created abstract art using watercolours, inks and pens. My artwork expresses different times in my life. I find painting to be both relaxing and meditative.
I am now coming full circle, as I am excited to be supporting the clients and team at Ellements Group with my administrative skills.
