Jessi Tiedemann
Meet Jessi, the quintessential bookkeeper with a heart of gold and a flair for multitasking. As a single parent, she fearlessly pursued her dream of crunching numbers, all while raising two energetic girls and managing a household that sometimes seemed to have more moving parts than a Swiss watch. With her trusty calculator always within arm’s reach, Jessi embarked on an educational adventure, earning her associate degree that not only bolstered her career but also became a shining example for her daughters. As a homeschooling mom, she’s the queen of answering emails, balancing spreadsheets, and answering middle school math questions simultaneously. Beyond her numerical prowess, Jessi finds solace in her backyard swing, an oasis of calm where she can be found daydreaming and letting the world spin on without her. Her furry companion, a loyal canine confidant, provides unwavering companionship during both late-night number crunching and swing-time reveries. Adding another feather to her cap, Jessi is also a devoted spouse, sharing her journey with a partner who’s her biggest cheerleader and the wind beneath her wings.

It is through his real estate endeavors that James saw the opportunity to help business owners in the building trades to be able to focus on doing the craft they loved and are most skilled at while supporting them in their back-office administration and to help them implement KPI’s, dashboards, SOP’s and many other tools to run their businesses more efficiently and profitably. When not helping others achieve their goals and visions, James lives in Sewell, New Jersey with his wife Kaitlyn, their daughter Keira, and old pup CJ.
