Meet Grant McMichael, CPA!

Born and raised in Austin, Texas, Grant began his arc to accounting at the University of Georgia. After a number of years in the hospitality industry, Grant completed his undergraduate studies at St. Edward's University and began working for a local CPA firm in Austin. After completing his Master's degree and passing the CPA exam, Grant decided it was time to start his own firm in July of 2016. At the time, Grant's son, Liam, was 5 and about to start kindergarten. Today, Liam is 15 and a freshman in high school. Grant and Liam live in South Austin with their dogs Iroh and Oatmeal. When not walking the dogs or working on tax returns, Grant can usually be found at Life Time Fitness.
