History of the Hive
In 2004, Jessica founded her first company, Professional Consultants in Louisiana where she provided general business services to her clients. In 2008, she moved to Arizona and with a brief stint in the W-2 world, she realized her passion lied with helping business owners and relaunched as Personal Consultants. Looking for a fresh approach to tired bookkeeping, Jessica rebranded the company to Get Jessica in 2018.
After 14 years in business and substantial growth, she realized her mission was bigger than just her in 2023. So she went searching for a team to help her bring it all to reality.
