About
A consultant first.
A CPA also.
I see a business, its owner, and their family as one economic picture — not three separate clients. My job is to assemble the numbers into something you can actually use to make a decision, then guide you through your options. Taxes are only one component of smart financial choices. I manage the filing, the IRS notices and coach you through financial planning. At Noblesville Tax Management, one person manages the whole picture.

Michael Brutout
Consultant & CPA
I'm a Ball State graduate, registered Certified Public Accountant, and hold Series 7 and Series 66 registrations. I started my career at a small firm that showed me how much I enjoyed working with the local community. After several years with a larger regional firm, I joined Daryl Petry in 2020 and later continued serving those clients. I enjoy clients who want longer meetings and more engagement, rather than just needing a signature at the end of every year. If all you want is the peace of mind of knowing a licensed CPA filed your taxes, I take care of that too.
What we stand for
Four commitments behind every engagement.
Licensed, but not just a filer
A CPA owns the work start to finish — but the job doesn't stop at filing. Recommendations and honest pushback are part of the engagement.
Proactive, not reactive
Longer meetings, held during the year — not a rushed once-a-year appointment when it's already too late to act.
One economic picture
Your business, your personal return, and your family's finances, considered together — because that's how they actually work.
Local & available
Rooted in Noblesville, working with clients across Indiana — and remotely in any state. By appointment, with a real person on the other end.
