I want to thank everyone who voted for Knight CPA as Best Accountant in the Best of Baldwin 2026 awards. It was humbling to be nominated, let alone to win. There are a lot of good accountants in Baldwin County, so to win this award is an honor. I want to thank my staff, Maria Foster and Brookelynn Finley for sticking with me and helping this practice get better and better everyday.

For every $1000 you have in savings, you are leaving $39 a year in the bank’s pocket.
