Hey there.

I’m Jake, a designer originally from Detroit but now based in gorgeous Traverse City, MI. With over eight years of advertising experience, I’ve been fortunate to work with companies like Samsung, Ford, and GM on a range of digitally focused campaigns, activations, and experiences.

When I'm not behind the computer, you can usually find me out on a hiking trail with my husband, stitching up a new project on my sewing machine, or taking photos. At home, I'm surrounded by my furry friends - Honey, a small dachshund with a big attitude and a cat, Khloe.
