Jeremy Nelson has joined GAE as a Senior Accountant/Benefits Specialist on the GAE Finance team. He is a Certified Public Accountant (CPA) and USAF Veteran. Jeremy is a proven leader with a demonstrated history of optimizing financial processes to drive business success. In his role, he will work closely with the CFO to manage complex financial projects, focusing on efficiency, accuracy, and compliance. Originally from Jamaica, he now resides in Dunwoody with his wife of over three decades. He also has two adult daughters. Jeremy is looking forward to making significant contributions to the GAE mission.
Before starting her career at GAE, Danielle Johnson was a Sheriff Processing Technician in the Dekalb County Sheriff’s Office for 15 years. She started as a bonding technician and then was promoted to Record Retention Technician/Court Liaison, which was where she developed a love for the judiciary and law. Outside of work, Danielle is the stepmother of an 8-year-old son and a 19-year-old daughter. She is also a fur mom of two adorable (and spoiled) dogs, Madison Giselle and Dolly Lolita. She is a music lover (she has way too many favorite artists to name, but is a huge Beyoncé), and also enjoys watching anime and professional wrestling, along with playing video games (she is a big kid at heart). After graduating from Stone Mountain High School, Danielle majored in psychology at Georgia Perimeter College and also studied criminal justice at Strayer University for two years.
If GAE’s new executive assistant Cedric Washington Jr. looks familiar, that is because he is joining GAE staff for his second go-round. He originally came to GAE in December 2021. Both of Cedric’s parents are educators and have instilled in him the importance of being of service and giving back. Washington has spent much of his career in customer service roles, servicing insurance members and established corporate offices in the city of Atlanta. He has an extensive history in data reporting, strategic organizing and team building. When he isn’t working for our members, you may find Cedric reading or traveling to his hometown of Tampa, Florida, where his family resides. Enjoying the beach and fun in the sun are his favorite things to do.
