2019 Our Year in Review

by | Dec 30, 2019 | Community, Team

What a Year it’s Been!

2019 has been an incredible year for the entire Senter crew; it’s been nothing short of amazing to grow so much as a firm and family. We’ve had an overwhelming response of encouragement and support from both new and existing clients who have helped us flourish as a firm. It’s certainly been an interesting year, though I wouldn’t expect anything less along the way. Most and best of all, 2019 has been a blast!

The Senter, CPA, P.C. Firm

We continue to strive to exceed expectations and we continue to pride ourselves in the services we offer. Candidly, the best results are achieved through the personal aspect of work, allowing us to serve our clients earnestly and efficiently.

In November, we expanded our practice by adding another rockstar to the Senter, CPA team, Kylie Harig. Please call or swing by our office to give her a warm welcome. However, in the meantime, you can expect that she will introduce herself in the coming days via our BLOG.

As a firm, we commit ourselves to growth and development within our industry. Over the course of 2019, we’ve attended a wide range of seminars, webinars and workshops, researched, and worked with our partners, which allows us to ensure that we are knowledgeable on tax law changes and best practices for our clients. In addition, we were fortunate enough to spend two days at MICPA’s Mangement and Business Information show and two days at the Michigan State University Income Tax school, as well at many other continuing education requirements through the year.

The Senter Family

The kids are growing like weeds; it’s always an interesting time at the Senter house! Cassie and I are alive and well despite all the chaos. No real changes for me, as I try to stay focused and hard at work. Cassie has started working from home to be with the kids more and it’s been a wonderful experience for us all. She is truly AMAZING and definitely the glue that keeps us together.

Boys will be boys and rest assured, they fight like cats and dogs. Ben, now 12, has taken a liking to music and is good at several instruments. Waylon is now 3, wild as ever, and will do anything for a laugh. After meeting him, you’d understand!

The biggest change to our household this year was finding out our daughter, Charlotte, has severe food and environmental allergies. Cassie and I have made big changes within our household, accompanied with several doctor’s visits to combat her allergies. For a gal who is only 1, it’s a big deal.

Mastering the TaxDome Client Portal

Now that you’re all set up with your TaxDome portal (woohoo!), let’s talk about what happens next.

We’re Hiring: Rockstar Bookkeeper – Client Accounting Services

At Senter CPA, we don’t just keep the books—we keep small businesses moving. We’re a tight-knit team that’s proudly powered by coffee, cloud tech, and a whole lot of care for the clients we serve.

We’ve been supporting entrepreneurs, family-run businesses, and community builders for years. But we don’t live in spreadsheets from 1997. We’re the kind of firm that automates what can be automated, embraces fresh tools, and dares to rethink what accounting support should feel like.

The One Big Beautiful Bill Act: What You Need to Know

The One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA), passed in 2025, is a major new law that changes a lot about taxes, health care, and more. Here’s a simple breakdown of what it means for individuals, families, and businesses.

Getting Started with TaxDome: Your Senter CPA Client Portal

We recently shared the exciting news that Senter CPA, P.C. is transitioning from Onvio to TaxDome, our new all-in-one client portal. This change is designed to simplify how you work with us—and now it’s time to show you how it all works.

Protect Yourself from Financial Fraud

To safeguard yourself from personal financial fraud, stay vigilant about securing your personal information, regularly monitor your financial accounts, exercise caution during online transactions, and never share sensitive details with unfamiliar sources.

Accountants or Superheroes? You Decide…

Being honest, no one hears accounting and thinks “wow! that’s got to be fun!”. There are no explosions, no villains (except for maybe tax law), and definitely no fights (unless you count audits). But behind every successful business is a calm, calculator-wielding hero crunching numbers and saving the day one set of financials at a time. Yes, we mean that literally.

Senter, CPA Moving to TaxDome for a Better Client Experience

At Senter CPA, P.C., we are always seeking new ways to deliver the highest quality service, communication, and security to our clients. As part of that mission, we’re excited to announce an upcoming change to the way we manage our client portal and internal workflows: we are officially transitioning from Thomson Reuters Onvio to TaxDome.
