About
Jesse can lead groups, businesses, and teams in a very effective and efficient manner.
His self-confidence in when to take charge allows him to focus on what needs to be done and whatever it takes to accomplish a task or strategy and overcome any obstacles. Jesse is keenly observant and notices the little things about people that others overlook. Through watching people, he learns how he can interact with them. His persistence allows him to keep trying and never quit regardless of obstacles. Jesse is dedicated to achieving success. He is solid as a rock and can remain unshaken, steady, and consistent by being unemotional. Jesse speaks directly and straightforwardly and can quickly get to the point.
As an accomplished executive, Jesse’s professional life demands unwavering dedication and focus. However, beyond the boardroom and business meetings, he has a deep passion for nature and boating. Boating is his respite from the daily grind. With a deep love for the outdoors and experience of being on the water, either deep sea fishing, shelling on the barrier islands, or simply cruising around, this is a haven where he can recharge, reenergize, and reignite his passion for adventure.
Jesse has learned the importance of strong family bonds and the invaluable lessons that can be drawn from them. He believes family is a source of personal happiness and a wellspring of wisdom and perspective. Celebrating the joy of his grandchildren is his inspiration.
Jesse has a love for travel and adventure. He believes that traveling for business doesn’t have to be all work and no play. He understands that professional commitments are essential, but excitement and enjoyment during your executive journeys are necessary.
