Jamie oversees the entire development team to ensure clients’ projects meet their financial expectations. He has overseen more than $700 million in bond offerings and financial feasibility studies.

Combining a streamlined process with his unbiased perspective, Jamie makes it possible for clients to thoroughly understand the opportunities available to them within their market and confidently determine whether a project is worth pursuing. Jamie has a Bachelor of Science from Miami University and a Master of Business Administration (MBA) from Franklin University.

Kyle DeHenau, Senior Vice President

Kyle specializes in planning and managing logistically challenging construction projects, building additions, and renovations. His expertise in senior living predevelopment programming and budgeting has resulted in well-run projects with minimal impact to clients. Kyle’s experience involves estimating, scheduling, and vendor coordination, skills that help him work seamlessly as part of the development team to safeguard the client’s budget and schedule from concept to completion. Kyle obtained two Bachelor of Science degrees from Lawrence Technological University, one in civil engineering and one in architecture.

John Cassidy, Vice President

She is a certified Project Management Professional (PMP) and member of the Project Management Institute (PMI).
