Profil

Jake began his career in marketing and advertising, working on some of the most well-known advertising campaigns of all time, including for ESPN, Nike, Brand Jordan and Wheaties, while working at Wieden + Kennedy and Saatchi & Saatchi.
After earning an MBA in Finance and Entrepreneurship at Columbia Business School, Jake took on a number of roles at venture-backed, high-growth technology companies where he worked in leadership positions on the business side of operations, helping scale up their business development, sales and strategic partnership efforts.
Jake was an early employee at Foursquare, helping grow Foursquare’s suite of small business products from a handful of customers to over 2 million businesses worldwide and leading strategic partnerships with Fortune 500 companies.
Jake then built out business development and sales/marketing functions at two early stage startups, helping one of them be sold to a strategic acquirer and the second raise a large round of growth financing.
Jake has extensive experience in all aspects of marketing including: branding, social media, performance marketing across all channels and eCommerce customer acquisition and retention.
Since partnering with Gary in 2016, Jake led their realized investment in Fellow Barber from deal sourcing through successful sale to another investor, assisted in the highly successful exit of SherrillTree/Vertical Supply Group to a middle market private equity firm and leads their current investment in Seybert’s Billiards Supply/The Rack Group, as well as new deal sourcing.
Jake has a BA from Northwestern University and an MBA from Columbia University.
