Hi, I'm Darci Fischer

I'm an Assistant Professor in Accounting at the Gatton College of Business and Economics at the University of Kentucky. My research interests include tax and financial reporting regulation. 

Prior to joining Gatton, I graduated with my PhD in Accounting from the Questrom School of Business at Boston University. I also worked as a Tax Manager and CPA in Deloitte’s federal tax practice. I have extensive experience in leading tax compliance projects, tax transaction modeling, and as a tax specialist for audit clients. During my time at Deloitte, I co-developed and instructed tax trainings for clients, external groups, and internal audiences in the U.S. and India. 

I grew up in Southern Illinois near St. Louis, Missouri. In my free time, I enjoy reading, traveling, cooking, playing piano, crocheting, and relaxing with my husband and dog.
