Hayleigh Lima
Staff Accountant
Since joining the Edwards & Associates team in 2023, Hayleigh has become a valued member of the staff accountant team. Her responsibilities include entering credit card and bank statements, performing reconciliations, adjusting journal entries, preparing financial statements, organizing and saving data requests, and maintaining effective communication with the team. Hayleigh originally wanted to pursue a career in the medical field, so providing accounting services to dental practices is a match made in heaven!
Before joining our team, Hayleigh gained experience at Goldman Sachs, where she served as an Internal Audit Analyst, and Baker Tilly, where she worked as an Accounting Assistant. Hayleigh holds a B.S. in Accounting from the University of Texas at Dallas.
Outside of work, Hayleigh is an avid runner and yoga enthusiast. When it’s time to wind down, she enjoys reading and spending time with friends and family. Originally from Plano, TX, Hayleigh now resides in Dallas where she volunteers at the Second Chance SPCA animal shelter.
