Jake dreamed of being a weatherman, bus driver, and a game show host when he was younger. His job now, Interaction Design Director in Fjord’s Seattle studio, is a combination of the three. He enjoys predicting the mood, spotting trends and seeing the coming storms (and mostly gets it right). He gets the team gets to where they are going, making sure they don’t miss their stop. He pumps up the energy in a room, turning everything into a game while presenting with ease in a silky smooth baritone, making sure everyone watching is having a great time. He has worked on automotive, the future of the mainframe, retail experiences, and once, accidentally created a cult.
