Chase Birky is a co-founder of Dark Horse CPAs and currently serves as its President & CEO. When asked why he got into accounting, he thought for a moment and then responded, “I graduated college during the great recession and it was pretty clear that my options were either waiting tables at Chili’s or working for a Big 4. Needless to say, I chose the latter.” He eventually chose to leave the Big 4 to build a firm that specialized in serving small businesses and individuals that the big guys too often overlooked.

Dark Horse was born from Chase’s and co-founder Max Fritz’s belief that small businesses, entrepreneurs & intrapreneurs are often Dark Horses amongst their larger, more well-known competitors. They also believe that the right guidance can help propel those horses to unexpected heights. Chase added, “especially during these uncertain times, small businesses need a trusted advisor to navigate the highly fluid and often confusing business climate brought about by COVID-19. Small businesses, now more than ever, need a Dark Horse CPA.”
