Jeremy Hauk, CPA

Managing Partner/CEO

Jeremy Hauk

I'm a big fan of Lou Holtz's leadership style. He says to "follow three rules: do the right thing, do the best you can and always show people you care." I try to apply those rules to both my professional and personal life.

OVERVIEW

Since joining the firm in 1989, Jeremy has provided tax, consulting and business advisory services to a diverse group of clients from a wide range of industries, including financial institutions, real estate, dentist and physician groups, as well as income tax and estate planning for individuals. He serves on Eide Bailly's Board of Directors and is a member of the firm's Retirement Committee and Financial Institutions Services Group. Jeremy works to develop processes and tools, assists with technical and training issues and develops strategies to improve the firm's operations.

When you work with Jeremy, you can expect a working relationship based on mutual professional respect. In the face of difficult projects or challenges, Jeremy is always motivated to work through the issues with his clients in order to provide the best possible solution that meets their business needs.

When he's not in the office, Jeremy loves to devote his free time to coaching basketball for his three daughters and supporting them in their many activities. As a coach, he loves teaching the fundamentals and hopes he passes on his love of the game and passion for playing hard and having fun! Jeremy also enjoys running, gardening and his latest pursuit: fly fishing.
