Undoubtedly, practitioners understand the value that their expertise brings to their clients. We’ve all seen the results of clients who self-prepare their taxes using that well-known tax software (no need to mention names) ... Accountants would never advise clients to prepare their own taxes, sell their own home or, if a business owner, to sell their business on their own.

The MICPA is comprised of dedicated professionals who are passionate about the accounting profession and its future.

Each year, these members bring their skills and unique perspectives to the helm of the association to help steer its initiatives. As we welcome the 2025-26 Board of Directors, it is with deep appreciation that we first recognize outgoing Board Chair Laurie Horvath, CPA, principal, not-for-profit and healthcare practice leader, Baker Tilly, and outgoing directors Diane DeFrancis, CPA, partner, Deloitte, and Darrin Schultz, CPA partner, industrial manufacturing automotive audit, KPMG.
