Cindy Benfer is your go-to CPA for turning tax codes into plain English and financial statements into bedtime stories (well, almost). With a knack for making complex numbers seem like a walk in the park, Cindy graduated Magna Cum Laude from Texas A&M University with a Bachelor of Business Administration in Accounting—a degree she’s used to navigate the wild, wild world of tax preparation, financial statements, and sales tax with finesse.
Before joining Duncan, Messersmith and Associates a few years ago, Cindy was a seasoned traveler in the public accounting world, with stints in Mississippi and Texas where she mastered the art of balancing ledgers and deciphering financial puzzles. If there’s a tax conundrum out there, Cindy’s got it covered—often with a side of humor.
When she’s not wrangling spreadsheets or explaining deductions, Cindy enjoys quality family time and is on a mission to conquer all 52 of Arkansas' state parks. Yes, you read that right—Cindy’s idea of a good time involves crisscrossing the state in search of the perfect picnic spot and a new park to add to her ever-growing list.
So, if you need an accountant who can keep your finances in check and add a dash of humor to the mix, Cindy’s your person. Just don’t ask her to do your taxes while she’s hiking—she might just draft a financial plan in the middle of the Ozarks!
