Recently, the President and CEO of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA) recognized the contributions to our profession by several partners of DiSanto, Priest & Co.
Our very own Bill Pirolli, has been involved on various boards and committees with the Rhode Island Society of Certified Public Accountants (RISCPA) (including past President of the RISCPA) and the AICPA for most of his professional career. Bill has helped shape many great initiatives to advance the certified public accounting profession which we get to see first-hand on a daily basis.
More recently, Bill was recognized for his outstanding service as Chair of Private Companies Practice Section (PCPS) Executive Committee for the past three years. PCPS is a firm membership section of the AICPA. Its governing body and Executive Committee, is comprised of professionals throughout the country who represent views of local and regional firms on professional issues and oversee development of programs to help improve the quality of services and operating success of PCPS member firms. It also enables and facilitates communication to and from PCPS firms on professional and technical issues and PCPS and AICPA matters.
Other members of the firm holding leadership roles on a national basis include John J. Brough Jr. and Leah J. Szlatenyi.
John J Brough, Jr. is a member of the AICPA's Forensics & Litigation Services (FLS) Committee. John is one of only fourteen forensic and litigation experts across the country serving as a member of the Committee. The FLS Committee provides professional guidance to CPA practitioners who perform forensic accounting investigations and determine economic damages. The Forensic and Valuation Services Center is designed to provide CPAs with a vast array of resources, tools and information on Business Valuation and Forensic and Litigation Services (BV / FLS). The FLS Committee develops, promotes and creates demand for developing emerging forensic accounting services by raising the level of awareness of a CPA's role in this area for lawyers and other service professionals. 
Leah J. Szlatenyi is one of only twelve valuation experts across the country serving as a member of the AICPA's Business Valuation Committee. Her appointment affords her the opportunity to represent all CPAs and business valuation practitioners located in the New England and Mid-Atlantic states. Leah also serves on the RISCPA Business Valuation Committee.
