Brian Kelly, CPA

President and Head Cheerleader

My career started in elementary school when my brother and I were selected to take over our neighborhood newspaper route.  As a 10-year old, it was exciting to deposit my monthly check into my bank account and see my account grow over time.  I guess that’s where my interest in finance started that lead me to pursue an education in accounting.

My first accounting class was as a High School Junior, and I immediately knew I would pursue an accounting career.  I started in public accounting after graduating from The University of South Carolina-Aiken, worked for the Federal government, pursued a career in sales and then worked with a couple of start up businesses before realizing I had an interest in running a business of my own.

An interest in technology lead me to ASI where it has become my goal to help as many people and businesses as possible through the use of software and technology solutions.  In my free time, I enjoy spending time with my wife, Christina, our son, Will, and our daughter, Taylor.

I serve at my Church, continue to play organized soccer, watch my favorite college and professional sports teams on television, and attempt to play guitar and piano for my own musical enjoyment.
