FloQast Leadership Team
No one understands the challenges accountants face better than those who’ve experienced them firsthand. FloQast was founded in 2013 by Mike Whitmire, who, after years as an auditor and accountant, realized the profession’s need for better tools and support. This ethos, “By accountants, for accountants,” drives everything FloQast does. It’s not just a slogan; it’s a reality reflected in our team.
