Realizing that there was a need in the market, Jessica wanted to help business owners exit their business. She found that baby boomers did not know where to turn when wanting to retire. Although she thought of mostly baby boomers, she realized that other business owners needed to exit their business as well. They have built something great, reinvested a lot of their money back into the business and care about their customers and employees. Jessica wanted to give them an outlet to transition what they have worked so hard to create while leaving a legacy.
Jessica is married to Brad and they have two sons, Carter and Grant. You are likely to find them boating, at a football stadium or basketball court.
