Mark Porter

Nice to meet you 👋

Mark Porter began his tax journey in October 2006 when he founded Indy Flat-Tax, which he later rebranded as Porter’s Tax Service in May 2023. His path to becoming a seasoned tax professional was forged during his years of dedicated service in the United States Navy. Mark’s journey into the world of taxes began in 1989 when he enlisted in the U.S. Navy. Recognizing the need for accessible tax assistance within the military community, he delved into tax courses and classes focused on military personnel’s unique tax needs. In 1991, Mark took it upon himself to provide free tax assistance to fellow Navy members, sparing them from the burden of hefty fees charged by big tax companies. His commitment to excellence earned him an Associate’s degree in accounting with a major in taxes from Kelsey Jenny College in 1995. Mark continued to serve his country, accumulating 17 years of naval experience, including deployments to international destinations like Hong Kong, Singapore, Africa, and Hawaii. His exceptional service earned him five Navy Achievement Medals and six Good Conduct Awards, also serving during Desert Storm. Indy Flat-Tax
