Michael Williams, CPA

---

Michael is a hands on accounting, finance, treasury and operational executive with Big 5 public and private accounting and entrepreneurial experience.  He graduated Cum Laude with a degree in accounting and finance from the University of Montevallo in 1999.  He earned his CPA license while working at Arthur Andersen.  

In 2002, he moved to Greensboro, North Carolina to work in internal audit for one of the world's largest apparel manufacturer.  After 2-years of the corporate life, he decided to open his own business and grew to over 18 locations with 160 employees across the southeast .

He sold his business after close to 10 years and worked with other small to medium businesses on his own before joining a large national small business consulting firm where he traveled across the country.  He worked closely with small growing companies, helping them bring order to their accounting and finance departments.

His wife grew tired of all the travel and felt like a single mom, so he started his own fractional CFO and accounting firm, SME Accounting.
