Meet Your New
Accounting Team
We saw the way progressive software was improving bookkeeping/accounting/tax compliance in small island nations and we thought, why not Canada?
We started off working in an office of developers and we got to pick the things that we liked and get rid of the things we didn’t (read – old/bad/smelly software). Being small and agile meant that we weren’t attached to any legacy systems. We learned that offices should have BBQ’s, the coffee doesn’t need to be terrible and games should be encouraged.
Should your accountant be the last one with a Blackberry?
We believe our clients should understand the financial aspects of how their business works and its our job to teach them. It’s not just a tax return.
The Sprout Team
The perfect mix of accounting and tech, our team has year of experience in the industry. Most of our team have or are working towards becoming a chartered professional accountant (CPA).

CPA, CA President
Mike Kerfoot
When he’s not talking about Xero and helping people with their books, Mike is trying to find the best espresso in Vancouver or a new adventure. After getting a CA with one of the “Big 4” accounting firms in Vancouver, Mike traveled the world as Controller and CFO of various exploration and production mining companies to places like, Peru, Sweden and Idaho. Mike spends much of his time in pursuit of outdoor adventures, from bikes and boats in the summer to backcountry skiing in the winter.

Senior Accountant
Asheen Khan
A long-time fan of puzzles and strategy games, Asheen found a natural fit with the principle- based world of accounting and tax. First exposed to Xero at a start-up bookkeeping firm in Surrey, BC working with fitness centers, property managers and restaurants, Asheen joined Sprout in 2016 with an appreciation for the challenges faced by small business owners. When he’s not preparing tax returns or supporting clients with their accounting needs, Asheen is watching the latest crime thriller or Marvel movie. Asheen completed his CPA exams in September 2019.
