Guest Blog Post As CPS Investment Advisors marks its 50th anniversary, the firm is proud to announce the promotion of Michael A. Riskin, CPA/PFS, CFP®, MST, to President. This milestone reflects the firm’s legacy of excellence and highlights its forward-looking commitment to leadership and client-focused service.  Michael brings more than 15 years of experience with CPS Investment Advisors and a lifelong dedication to financial planning and practice management. His passion for personal financial planning emerged during his time at a leading public accounting firm, where he discovered his calling: guiding individuals and families through complex financial challenges. A Florida native, Michael holds a degree in Business and Economics from Lehigh University and a Master’s in Taxation from Florida International University. As a Certified Public Accountant (CPA), Certified Financial Planner (CFP®), and Personal Financial Specialist (PFS), Michael exemplifies the firm’s core values of expertise, integrity, and client-first service. “Since joining CPS Investment Advisors in 2009, I have been proud to represent a firm so highly focused on the client experience and community involvement,” said Riskin. “Leading the team as President is an incredible honor, and I look forward to helping CPS Investment Advisors bring value to our clients for many years to come.” Michael’s promotion is a key component of CPS Investment Advisors’ strategic succession plan, designed to ensure continuity in delivering boutique-level service to clients while positioning the firm for the future. Peter Golotko, who has served as President for the past nine years, will continue in his role as CEO, providing guidance and support during this transition. “Michael has been an invaluable member of the CPS Investment Advisors team over the past 15 years,” said Peter C. Golotko, CPA/PFS, MBA, CEO and Partner of CPS Investment Advisors. “We are confident that his leadership will uphold the firm’s commitment to our clients and community as we celebrate our golden anniversary and look toward the future.”  In addition to his professional achievements, Michael, his wife Nyrka, and their daughter are deeply involved in the Lakeland community. Michael’s passion for education and leadership development is evident through his extensive community involvement. A graduate of Leadership Lakeland Class XXIX, he has served or currently serves on the boards of numerous organizations, including the Florida Southern College Masters of Accountancy Program, Florida Southern College Fraud Conference, Kiwanis Club of Lakeland, EMERGE Serves, Estate Planning Council of Polk County, FICPA – Polk County Chapter, Florida Tropics Academy, All Saints Academy, Campfire Sunshine Central Florida, AMI Kids, and Temple Emanuel.
