Jesse Klausmeier: Hello, my name is Jesse Klausmeier. Although Klausmeier is quite a mouthful, it's my first name that has caused the most confusion throughout my life. Because my name is spelled J E S S E, on the first day of school most of my teachers would scan the classroom for a boy when taking roll call. Imagine their surprise when I would answer, "Present." And just so you know, Jesse isn't short for Jessica, I'm just Jesse. That earned me the nickname Just Jesse, and I still answer to it today.
