Randall (Randy) Jessup, C.P.A., Partner

Randy, a Gainesville native, has over 10 years experience concentrated in partnership, corporate, fiduciary and individual taxation.  Randy firmly believes tax consulting should be proactive rather than reactive, and that the time to learn the tax implications of a business decision is before the decision is made.  He particularly enjoys tax planning and research, and consulting clients on entity selection and structure.  His primary focus is working with closely held businesses and their owners in a variety of industries including technology, professional services, real estate and construction.

An active community member and professional, Randy's activities include:

• Treasurer and Board of Directors, Challenged Child and Friends
• Treasurer and Board of Directors, Gainesville Jaycees
• Graduate of Leadership Hall County
• Graduate of Georgia Society of CPAs Leadership Academy
• Stewardship Committee, First Baptist Church
• North Georgia Estate Planning Council
• Member, AICPA
• Member, GSCPA

Randy graduated from the University of Georgia in 1996 with a Bachelors Degree in Business Administration and in 2000 with a Masters Degree in Accountancy.

When he's not working, Randy spends family time with his wife, Amy, and their three children, Ben, John and Elizabeth.  Randy also enjoys following UGA athletics, playing golf, coaching youth sports and cooking on his Big Green Egg.
