UHY Advisors (“UHY”), a leading national accounting, tax and consulting firm, today announced that Steven McCarty has been elected CEO, effective January 1, 2019.

“Steve has been with UHY nearly 27 years and has proven himself as an exceptional colleague, industry professional and leader within the firm,” said Tony Frabotta, outgoing CEO. “Steve has been a trusted confidant to clients and an active participant in the local communities which UHY serves.
