Jamie Lettow has over ten years of experience in public accounting. Prior to joining BKC Jamie worked as a credit analyst intern while earning his MSA from Grand Valley State University. This experience helped Jamie learn how the banking industry works in coordination with the CPA to help Company’s of all sizes reach their business goals.
During Jamie’s ten years at BKC he has gained vast experience working with all facets of a client’s business including corporate and individual tax, multi-state taxation, Michigan sales and use tax, financial statement assurance (audits, reviews & compilations) and numerous other niche filings such as MDOT prequalification application for construction contractors. This vast array of experience has given Jamie the unique ability to advise clients on the whole picture of running a business and any potential pitfalls throughout the process. During the past five years Jamie has specialized in taxation including corporate, individual, state and local taxation.
During his time away from the office, Jamie enjoys spending time with his wonderful wife and three amazing daughters. With three young daughters there isn’t much “free time,” but during that limited time Jamie enjoys golfing, running, biking or anything outdoors. Family time usually includes hiking, camping, fishing, making “forts” in the living room or gardening.

WHY BKC?
Co-workers and clients! “I feel lucky to work with such great people.” It is obvious that the culture at BKC is focused on being personable and encouraging growth in your career. Questions get answered quickly because everyone makes themselves available to you whenever you reach out.
BKC works with such a wide array of clients that it makes every day unique. One day could be spent helping a small business register with the necessary government authorities, gain financing from a local bank, and make their first dollar. The next could be spent giving advice on which states should a multi-state corporation expand to next or completing a cost/benefit analysis for building a new manufacturing facility. Co-workers and clients alike – I choose BKC because there are so many amazing people that I get to work with each day.
