  • I've known Jake since 2011 having worked alongside him for a number of years at FOX News Sunday with Chris Wallace. Jake has a deep understanding of national media, navigating the complexities of high-profile journalism.

Jake understands the news cycle and how news gathering organizations work. More than a decade later, Jake remains a trusted voice in media, PR, and communications. His expertise in national storytelling, message strategy and press engagement makes him an invaluable asset to any organization looking to elevate its presence in the public sphere.
