Christine Thomas

Senior Accountant
Hello all, I’m Christine! I’ve been with Sorrento Strategic since 2003, working remotely from Manjimup long before it was the cool thing to do. As the client base has grown, I’ve stayed calm under pressure, keeping track of deadlines and using my Xero expertise to support our clients directly. Outside of work, I’m deeply involved in my local community. Whether it’s volunteering for sporting clubs, fundraising for the school’s P&F, or serving on the school board for over 10 years, I’m always keeping busy. I even snagged the "Club Person of the Year" award in 2021 for the Manjimup Imperials Football Club!

Accountant
Hello all, I’m Alex! I joined Sorrento Strategic back in 2015, following in my mum’s footsteps as a casual junior. Since then, I’ve graduated with a Bachelor of Commerce from UWA, majoring in Accounting and Finance, and I’m now halfway through the CPA Program. With years of hands-on experience alongside my studies, I’ve built a solid understanding of taxation and how it applies in the real world. Outside the office, I’m a passionate AFL fan, cheering on the West Coast Eagles and playing footy with the North Beach Football Club.

I’ve been a practicing accountant since 2016, backed by a Bachelor of Accounting and a passion for helping businesses master their financial reporting, budgeting, and even crypto/digital assets.
