AYE, YOU FOUND ME!
No small feat given my propensity to be out exploring new things, places, people, and generally getting shit done.
WHO I AM
Hi, I’m Jake, a manager, a creative, and a creative manager.
Well that’s the easy way to put it.
I do a lot of things.
——
Primarily, I work as an Account and Brand Manager for world class Ad Agencies and Brands, as well as Directing & Writing Music Videos and Brand Content, Commercial and Private Photography, and Socioeconomic Photojournalism Research focused on Los Angeles and Class Mobility.
What ties it all together? The explanation could be lengthy so I’ll do my best to sum it up in three words: empathy, creativity, & communication.
——
Currently, I’m seeking a full-time marketing/creative management role.
I’ve loved my time with NEI and I’m excited to take that deep learning into an agency or brand team with greater resources, collaboration, and diversity of thought. If you’re in the market for a rising Account Sup or Brand manager, please check out my materials and drop a line!
——
Outside the office, you can find me taking photos, obviously, and keeping my former tour guide finger on the pulse of the city—or catch me on long drives to tacos stands and scenic view points, listening to deep cut hip-hop, and contemplating all things human existence.
