Brandon Velazquez
EVP
Brandon is the EVP of Commodore Partners and has played a pivotal role in transforming the business from less than a handful of people to 30+ and counting. Brandon started his career as an active duty military member in the USCG (unless you want to count his entrepreneurial endeavors of re-selling candy in middle school as the true starting point). He made his way into recruiting and he hasn’t looked back. He is blessed to be a partner of Commodore Partners where every day he is able to make a difference in people’s lives.
Fun Facts:
Dad to 2 doodlicious pups.
Avid exercise nut, which also helps offset his addiction to food.
Used to DJ in Los Angeles.

Jessica currently lives in NJ and is a graduate of the The University of Florida (Go Gators!)

Jennifer Barnett

Jen started her career in corporate sales and eventually found her niche in recruiting. She worked for over 5 years at a F500 firm where she led the spinoff and implementation of a new LOB, led a team of recruiters, and successfully placed over 200 candidates in a multitude of industries from staff to executive levels. Now Jen’s passion is in leadership, helping others accomplish their career goals and contribute to the continued growth at Commodore Partners!

Halfway through her trip around Scotland Jen and her husband went rouge, bought a tent and camped for 7 days!

Matt Wedding
Recruiting Manager
Matt is coming from the beaches of the Jersey Shore where he grew up and still resides. Matt spent some time in North Carolina as he graduated from East Carolina University with a degree in Exercise Physiology in 2017. He enjoys playing golf, hanging by the beach, and relaxing with his family/friends. A fun fact about Matt is that he has had 4 ACL surgeries from soccer injuries, so has tried to make the transition to coaching although he still laces up the boots from time to time. He loves working at Commodore because of the welcoming environment, and opportunity to grow! Matt is always ready to spark a laugh and lighten the mood, how ya doin?!
