McCloud & Associates
Leadership
Roger McCloud
Partner
At McCloud and Associates, my vision is centered on empowering our clients to safeguard their financial wealth through strategic tax planning, one client at a time, ultimately contributing to the defunding of the IRS.
Over the past decade, I have dedicated myself to refining my skills in accounting and management. Holding a degree in accounting, I have also attended both Indiana Bible College and Mid-American Christian University. I have cultivated a reputation as a leader within the accounting industry. My expertise has not only made an impact on fellow accountants and firms but has also earned me recognition in various magazines for my distinctive leadership style.
I am committed to driving our company forward, embracing change, and fostering innovation that aligns with the ever-evolving landscape of technology. Our journey is one of continual progress, and I am excited to lead a team that embraces fresh ideas and adapts to the advancements of our time.
Outside of work, I find fulfillment in the simple joys of life. Spending time with my five dogs—Captain, Tenniel, Asher, Magnolia, and Cosmo—brings me immense joy. Cleaning is not just a chore but a therapeutic activity, with vacuuming being a favorite pastime. Additionally, I take pleasure in cooking for loved ones and have opened my home to numerous exchange students from around the world, including Jacopo & Edo from Italy, Shawn from Taiwan, Pol from Spain, Chris from Germany, and Felipe from Brazil.
Music holds a special place in my heart, and I actively contribute to my church's music department, particularly enjoying playing the organ. It is a privilege to acknowledge that our business belongs to God, and we proudly stand as members of the 94x movement, embodying our commitment to faith and community.
