Husband and wife duo, Tom and Tara Neja, founded Serendipity Payroll to provide a personal level of service to small and medium sized business owners whom deserve to be treated not just as a number, but a treasured relationship. We know our clients by name, their kids, their passions. Speaking of, we know one of their passions is their business and we go out of our way every day to support them, especially to make sure their employees are paid accurately and on time, as employees are the lifeblood of their business. As entrepreneurs ourselves, we could not be more vested in your success and we want to support you in any way we can. Whether it’s payroll services, assistance with HR and ACA compliance, or providing pay-as-you-go Workers Comp premium plans, we are here to support you and your growing business.
We live in Corona California with our teenage son Christian, and Labradoodle Bella. We enjoy being involved in our community, whether with the Corona Chamber of Commerce, Corona Life Services, Our City Church or other community organizations. We love spending time with family and friends, playing golf, hiking, working out (so we can eat), as well as getting away to the local beaches and mountains when time permits.
Give us a call, and remember… Payroll is our passion!
Elaine Lewis spent 8 years as the Director of General Accounting at a hospital district before leaving the corporate world to become an entrepreneur. She was successfully self-employed for 20 years, while raising her children as a work-from-home mom. After becoming an empty-nester, she decided to return to the work world outside her home, and utilize her years of experience to again contribute to the success of a team. Her search brought her to Serendipity, where she found she shares the passion of payroll!
She lives near Serendipity’s corporate office, with her husband Phil, of 30 years. They enjoy being near their daughters, their husbands, and their growing families. Elaine is on the Board of Directors for Corona Life Services, and is also involved in the Corona community. She loves being of service to our clients!

Mike joined Serendipity Payroll with the intention of finding a rewarding career path with the potential for growth. Mike spent the last 14 years at Trader Joes, working as both a crew member and manager, with a focus on customer service and engagement. He looks forward to applying those skills in the payroll industry.
Mike is also a professional photographer, shooting mostly weddings but has been known to do the occasional holiday card also. He has a wife and two children, ages 12 and 16. Both kids are active in sports so weekends can be busy with game schedules. Mike is also an avid golfer, although his score may reflect otherwise. He is eager to bring his customer service expertise to our clients!
