Hey, I'm Jake.
I'm endlessly curious and driven to create.
I believe the best solutions come from
-
understanding people
-
finding value in unexpected places
-
learning to embrace the friction that naturally comes with creating something meaningful
At the end of the day, I just want to make things that help people.
I've served in the Marine Corps since 2018. I've served all over the world and am thankful for the experiences ive had and who its made me.

Mountain Biking is my form of meditation. There is no other sensation like shredding down a trail.

I was born to rock and roll. Playing music is the most natural way for me to express myself. I have recorded a few albums and toured all over the world.

The silence of the mountains is one of my favorite things in the world. After a day of riding, there's nothing better than grilling up sandwiches in the parking lot with friends and soaking in the moment.
Avid Snowboarder
During grad school, I lived out of my camper around the Boulder area. Truly a special time in life. This experience afforded me the ability to explore nonstop and gain life experiences that are priceless.

My pup, JJ (Jacob Jr.), wondered out of the woods one day and found me. I think it was divine intervention. We've been best buds since and do everything together.
