About Robert
Planning first. Compliance follows.
Robert’s approach to tax and accounting combines an obsession with number-driven data and a genuine passion for understanding each client’s specific situation. Over 14 years of public, corporate, and nonprofit accounting experience, he’s developed techniques for staying compliant across an increasingly complicated tax landscape — without losing sight of the plan behind the paperwork.
He founded Aylor CPA after 14 years in public accounting, tax planning, and advisory work. He believes accounting should help people make better decisions, not just check a compliance box — using his working knowledge of tax regulation to help clients understand exactly where they stand, then finding creative, defensible ways to improve it.
He’s also a recurring speaker on tax strategy for attorneys, financial advisors, and fellow CPAs across the Cincinnati region. Away from the ledger, Robert is raising his family in the area he grew up in, and spends his free time hiking, wrestling with his kids, and staying active outdoors.
