The Team

Annie Gladue-Latham, founder and president of Jedemi, is a creative-techie with a talent for synthesizing a lot of information in order to come up with innovative solutions to “stump the star” challenges.  Jedemi is something she has been developing for over two decades while taking on other projects (including marketing and communications for a variety of clients; IT, operations and logistics support). She is known for her energy, enthusiasm and tenacity.

Peter Gladue (AKA Mr Pete), a music aficionado, has the uncanny ability to suss out the right song for the right time — a skill that is truly amazing. His lifelong passion for music began with his father’s influence and was kindled during his developmental years. Mr Pete built an extensive collection of record albums —diligently organized and catalogued— by the time he was a junior in high school. His mixed tape skills, honed in college during his stint as music director, have been in continuous use over the years while curating holiday CDs as gifts for friends. Jedemi welcomes his contributions.

Tom Gladue (AKA TC) is a mega-perceptive facilitator with over 25 years of Hospitality and Retail industry experience. An excellent and empathic listener, he enjoys helping people and sharing his knowledge. Presently residing in Vegas, TC is the eyes and ears of Jedemi in what is truly becoming the epicenter of Entertainment and Sports.

Adriano Chiaretta is the technology guru of Jedemi.  He is a superb product architect and IT manager with extensive experience in software engineering, IT administration, team management, and the mobile apps ecosystem.  Adriano enjoys creating websites / web services, mobile applications, as well as handling the “machinery” behind them, i.e. servers and related software.
