Employee Spotlight: Kaileigh Eddy
Kaileigh Eddy’s career with DBC began in September 2011. Since then, she has grown alongside the firm, built lasting relationships with clients, and taken on increasing leadership responsibilities. In January 2026, Kaileigh was promoted to Partner and now leads DBC’s South Haven office, where she works closely with small businesses and individuals throughout the community.
Her role extends beyond traditional tax and accounting services. Kaileigh is also investment licensed and provides financial planning and projection services, with a particular concentration in Roth IRA conversion analysis. She enjoys helping clients understand how the decisions they make today may affect their financial position in the years ahead.
For Kaileigh, the most rewarding part of the work is often the moment when a complicated tax or financial issue begins to make sense for a client. She values the opportunity to explain the options, answer questions, and help people feel more confident about the path they are taking.
Kaileigh’s interest in accounting began in high school, when a teacher encouraged her to consider the profession. She later attended Western Michigan University and became involved with Beta Alpha Psi, the university’s accounting fraternity. As vice president, she focused on helping fellow students explore career opportunities beyond public accounting and connect with professionals across a variety of industries.
That interest in helping others see the possibilities available to them has carried into her career at DBC. Whether she is guiding a business owner through a tax question, helping an individual evaluate a Roth conversion, or supporting the team in South Haven, Kaileigh approaches her work with patience, care, and a practical understanding of what matters most to the people she serves.
South Haven is also the place Kaileigh and her family call home. She and her husband, Mark, have lived in the community for over 25 years. Together, Kaileigh and Mark have four children, Opal, Alexis, Elijah, and Cora, as well as their bonus son, Breal.
Rather than exchanging traditional gifts for birthdays and Christmas, the family often chooses to spend that time and money on experiences together. Camping and traveling have become some of their favorite ways to connect, explore new places, and create memories as a family.
When Kaileigh is not working, she enjoys hiking, biking, cross-country skiing, downhill skiing, and occasionally playing tourist in her own hometown.
Despite her full schedule, Kaileigh still has one skill she hopes to master someday: relaxation.
Throughout her career with DBC, Kaileigh has built a reputation as a trusted advisor, thoughtful leader, and steady presence in the South Haven office. We are proud to celebrate her continued growth with the firm and the impact she will continue to make in her role as Partner.
