Jake joined executive recruiting after a series of operational roles touching web3, social media and mobility. Most recently, Jake served as president of YouNow, a live streaming social media platform that democratized earning capabilities for its millions of users. Prior to that, Jake spent several years at Uber, where he led efforts ranging from new product launches to grassroots organization supporting Uber’s legislative agenda. Early in his career, Jake worked as an analyst at both Goldman Sachs and an education non-profit—a classic combination.
Throughout his career, Jake found that organizations make magic when they put the right people in the right place at the right time. People—their drive, their perspective, their passion—impact a company’s trajectory more than just about anything else. At True, Jake gets to help both companies and individuals find that perfect fit.
