Firm Leadership
Meet Michael Fitzpatrick, CPA
Originally from Erie, PA, Michael and his family relocated to the Columbus area for an opportunity at Mattison Yoder CPAs where Michael has been serving small business clients for over ten years. Growing from his start as a staff accountant, Michael moved into a client manager position. He then became firm manager in 2020 and has been the owner of the firm since 2023.
Michael is a graduate of Penn State University where he earned a bachelor's degree in accounting. He is a member of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA), the Ohio Society of Certified Public Accountants (OSCPA), and the Sunbury Chamber of Commerce.
Michael leads the firm with a commitment to long-term client relationships and practical, real-world advice for small business owners. Michael believes great accounting is about more than balance sheets and tax returns—it is about understanding the story behind the numbers and partnering with clients year-round to support the goals of their families and businesses.
Michael resides in Sunbury, OH with his wife of seventeen years, Sheila, and their four children. In his free time, Michael enjoys golfing with his son and drawing with his three creative daughters. He and his wife can be found cheering on their favorite sports teams and taking their Bernedoodle, Millie, for walks. They are active members of their church serving in the worship and Sunday School ministries there. It brings Michael great pleasure to serve with integrity the many clients in the community he calls home as well as clients across the nation.
