Rahul Agarwal CPA

Rahul grew up in Muncie, Indiana — the kind of kid who organized the community's cultural show and then choreographed the dances too. That energy carried him to Indiana University's Kelley School of Business as a Hutton Honors College scholar, through majors in accounting and entrepreneurship, and straight through the CPA exam: every section passed on the first attempt.

He cut his teeth in audit at Plante Moran in Chicago, where a new client and a new industry landed on his desk every couple of weeks — manufacturers, insurers, banks, universities, nonprofits, venture and real-estate portfolios, from ten-million-dollar organizations to those past a billion. From there he moved inside a publicly traded company, owning revenue accounting through a multibillion-dollar acquisition and the schedules behind its SEC filings. The lesson from both worlds is the one he brings to every return: precision is a habit, not an event.

As CEO and Co-Founder of Lithos Tax Advisory, the tax picture sits inside the whole plan, coordinated with every Lithos division. Off the clock he trains for triathlons, plays piano, coaches, and still builds LEGO — pursuits that reward patience and layers. Fitting, since Lithos is the Greek word for stone, and Rahul's ambition is simple: be a pillar of professional, personal tax service that communities can depend on.
