Matthew P. Hatfield, CPA
Partner
I strongly believe in building long-lasting meaningful relationships in the business community. This can only be done by acting with high integrity, treating people right, and genuinely caring about the success of others. As a native Arizonan and someone who has spent his entire life in the Valley of the Sun, I am blessed and honored to work with people whom I have met only recently to people I have known over 30 years. My operating philosophy can be summed up in the following: relationships, high quality, and integrity.
