Jake began his career in public relations in 2007 as a public relations intern with the New York Rangers at Madison Square Garden, later gaining additional experience with the Dallas Stars while earning a master's degree in Sports Industry Management from Georgetown University. He subsequently transitioned into political television news in Washington, D.C., joining Bloomberg Television, where he produced exclusive interviews with U.S. senators, White House officials, and Treasury Department leaders. He also co-produced the network's comprehensive coverage of the 2011 NFL Lockout, helping coordinate reporting and live programming surrounding one of the most significant labor disputes in professional sports. His experience at Bloomberg established a strong foundation in breaking news, political reporting, and high-profile live television production.
He later joined FOX News Sunday with Chris Wallace as a producer, where he secured high-profile interviews with leading business executives, including Under Armour CEO Kevin Plank, and contributed to coverage of presidential debates, major elections, and other nationally significant news events. In addition to his editorial responsibilities, Jake managed Chris Wallace's communications, serving as a key liaison with media organizations, publicists, corporate executives, and government officials to coordinate interviews, public appearances, and other high-profile engagements. This unique combination of newsroom production and strategic communications further strengthened his expertise in media relations, message development, and executive positioning.
His background also includes corporate communications, having served as a Business Development Executive at the National Press Club. In that role, Jake developed strategic messaging and organized high-profile events for Fortune 500 CEOs, political leaders, diplomats, and cultural figures.
