Kristen Peters, Accounts Payable Administrator

When Kristen is not working at SX as an AP Administrator, you can find her spending time with her very active 15-year-old twins enjoying the outdoors and camping. Or at her second job tending bar. “I am very outgoing and love meeting new people. I have been a bartender for the last 15 years and I really enjoy talking to different people and getting to know their stories.”


The oldest of four girls, Kristen grew up in Walpole and Foxborough. After graduating from Foxborough High School in 1999, she went to Northeastern for pre-law and obtained her para-legal certificate. Her first Job was at her family’s day care/summer camp. She spent most of her young adult life taking care of children. What she enjoyed most about teaching pre-k was watching them grow and learning new things. That is where she met some of her closest friends that she still has today! They went on lots of camping trips and field trips with the camp which is where her love for the outdoors came from. Kristen also loves to read and was frequently seen even reading in class. Immediately before working at SX, she worked for the town offices in Wayland for six and a half years. After meeting owner and CEO John Fleming, she came to work in 2022 and is so glad to have found SX!

 

What has been your experience so far at SX Business?

I really enjoy the team of people I work with here at SX! I enjoy multitasking and problem solving. It sounds a bit crazy, but I love being busy. That is why I enjoy all the different things I do here. I like learning new skills and developing the ones I already have. We have a very supportive and understanding team here and that is a rare find.


What is your dream job?

I went Northeastern for pre-law. I would love to go back to school to finish becoming a lawyer. My dream is to become a Judge.

SX Business Services is proud to introduce our newest Accounts Payable Administrator, Ed Keogh. His first job out of school was in financial services in Dublin where he spent 7 years working in various roles in the branch. Originally from southwest Dublin, he emigrated to the US in 2003. Married for 22 years to his lovely wife Sue they share two sons together, Aodhan (18) and Ryan (12) and a beautiful love story. They met at a bar in Dublin one Wednesday night and hit it off immediately while she was travelling through Europe. After a week or two of dating they took a vacation together and before the trip ended, he asked her to marry him with only his Claddagh ring. The importance of family was instilled in Ed as he was raised in a small 3-bedroom house with his parents and 6 siblings. He tries to return to Ireland once a year and brings his family back when he can. He loves watching, playing, and coaching football (OK soccer) and has been a volunteer Treasurer for Norwood Youth Soccer since 2019. His favorite team is Manchester United, and his favorite US soccer team is the NE Revolution. Additionally, he enjoys woodworking and has a small woodshop in his basement at home. He and his wife have traveled extensively together through the years and have also brought their kids to places such as: Ireland (obviously), Mexico, Canada, Spain, and Dominican Republic. Once they find a place they like, they are known to go back. Ed in his own words: What do you like about working at SX so far? “I love how friendly everyone is since I only started last month. I love the collaborative spirit as well. I love the work, my team and everyone I have come into contact with here.”

SX was fortunate to welcome Jillian as a staff accountant in December of 2023, she was quickly and deservedly promoted to the position of Property Accountant a year later. She is a graduate of Suffolk University with a Bachelor of Science in Business Administration – with an accounting major and business management minor. Her father has been a business owner for 43 years and motivated her to garner the minor in business management to someday follow in his footsteps. Growing up in West Bridgewater, MA, she claims her summers were the best part of living there and enjoyed each season at the beach tanning away. She has two older siblings, one brother and one sister whom she is very close to. Her family had a black labrador for over 13 years and they miss her dearly. Someday she wishes to be home more to have the flexibility to adopt at least one dog again. She is looking forward to the opportunity to travel and has never really left the United States. Her family went to Niagara Falls on the Canada side when she was two… that counts right!!? A short list of dream locales to visit include Italy, Greece, Dubai, Hawaii, and any other tropical islands. Jillian – ‘In her own words’: Have you learned anything new as an adult that you didn’t experience as a child? I recently tried skiing for the first time, and I absolutely loved it. I gave my retired gymnast self-credit as it was easy to learn. I enjoy being active. If you could have any other job, what would it be? My dream job would be to own a busy coffee shop or café since my two prior years working at Starbucks gained me a coffee addiction. I would also like to open a business for mind/body health – such as a trampoline park to help people suffering from fibromyalgia/ being a fitness instructor/ and potentially help people further with their health through supplementation/diet. What do you like most about your job, and/or working for SX? I enjoy accounting especially ever since I got to SX – I have noticed great vibes since coming here, and everyone is super helpful. We really make a great team.
