On the business side: 

Since 2003 Jake has overseen over $1Billion in real estate transactions in DC, MD, VA & most recently in PA where he was CEO of The PhillyLiving Team at Keller Williams. In the past 5 years Jake scaled the PhillyLiving business from $75 Million to almost $300 Million. In taking time to reflect upon what enabled the team to grow and thrive, Jake realized that the success of his business was directly related to the ability of the leadership team to take strategic risks in order to be able to position the business in a category of its own! This sent Jake on a mission to become an expert strategist in order to help other businesses grow and thrive. Jake is proud and honored to be one of the first “Fix This Next” Certified Advisors on the planet!

Jake is passionate about working with driven, vulnerable leaders who first seek to understand before wanting to be understood. During your sessions with Jake he will ensure that all of your business’ current blind spots are identified and that you have a clear plan to achieve your goals!
