Troy Eckhardt

Troy Eckhardt is a seasoned accountant and Enrolled Agent with a mission to empower veterinarians to build wealth, reduce tax liability, and plan for the future with confidence and dignity. As the founder of Eckhardt Accounting, Troy blends decades of experience, practical wisdom, and an unshakable commitment to integrity, all in service of helping others thrive financially and personally. Though Troy’s career began in the classroom as a German and physics teacher, he soon found himself disillusioned with the world of teaching in a government school. It was a calling closer to home that redirected his path: accounting, the profession of his father and mentor. Inspired by his dad's quiet competence and diligence, an audit group supervisor for the Florida Department of Revenue, Troy pursued a bachelor's degree in accounting and earned his Enrolled Agent designation. In 2000, after gradually building a loyal clientele, Troy transitioned full-time into the accounting world. By 2012, he bought out his father’s firm. However, the two continued working side by side but in separate corporations until his father’s passing in 2021, a legacy of both family and professional partnership that shaped the very DNA of Troy’s practice. One defining moment stands out early in Troy’s career: he and his father uncovered a little-known sales tax rule that saved a client $60,000 in a single engagement. That win lit the fire; It wasn’t just about crunching numbers, it was about creating real-world impact through strategic thinking and deep expertise. Today, Troy’s focus is laser-sharp: helping veterinarians grow their revenue, keep more of what they earn, and position themselves for a successful exit when the time comes. He understands that these professionals care deeply for others but often overlook their own financial future. His work bridges that gap with practical strategy, tax intelligence, and a fierce dedication to client success. Outside of business, Troy finds joy in studying the Bible, spending time with his family, and constantly learning about the universe. He doesn’t measure success by wealth or accolades but by how selflessly he can serve others and provide for those he loves. If there’s one thing people remember about Troy Eckhardt, let it be this: he is a man who values honesty, truth, and integrity both in business and in life.
