Jaime Wesley brings more than 20 years of finance and accounting leadership across credit unions, banking, nonprofits and higher education. She has led accounting for a credit union in a de facto CFO role, overseeing GAAP financial reporting, treasury and ALCO, regulatory compliance and board reporting.

Jaime founded The Red Admirable Accounting Firm in 2015 to give growing organizations the same caliber of financial leadership large institutions rely on. She holds an MBA in Public and Nonprofit Management from Saint Xavier University and is a CPA candidate.
