Whitecap exited the majority of its position in 2019 and provided significant returns to its shareholders.

While working as an electrician he founded American electrical solution a small commercial electrical company in Northern Virginia. While working full-time as an electrician he still ran and operated that business in the evenings checking jobs, dropping off materials, and estimating.
After three years of growing American electrical solutions, Jeremiah decided to sell it and get out of the electrical business. In 2005, he decided to open a retail aftermarket truck accessory shop in his hometown of Warrenton Virginia to be closer to his family.
He quickly became the authority in truck accessories, everything from wheels and tires to fifth wheel hitch’s. He not only built a great reputation with the community and his customers but also with the dealerships in the surrounding areas helping them to grow their business as much as they helped him to grow his. His drive again pushed him into starting and running multiple business. Snow and Ice LLC a fleet of snow plow trucks working for the state. Open Air Marketing LLC an outdoor mobile advertising business.
One of his biggest passions besides his family is real estate he’s co-owner of Warrenton Investment Partnerships LLC and Sole owner of Shallow Creek LLC.
