About Jake
I work with ambitious professionals who have done everything "right" and still feel stuck, burnt out, or disconnected from the work they're doing. You've hit the KPIs, earned the promotions, stacked the accomplishments. And yet underneath it all, something feels off. That's exactly where I operate. I am an ICF-credentialed (ACC) coach, with a decade-plus background leading digital marketing teams. I've sat in this seat. I've managed up, navigated tricky org politics, ground through quarters. So when my clients describe what they're going through professionally, I'm not merely theorizing. I've lived it, including the burnout that eventually caused me to rethink everything. My coaching goes deeper than career tactics. We work on the beliefs, patterns, and internal narratives that drive your decisions. Because what's keeping you stuck is rarely a skills gap. It usually follows from a story you've been telling yourself for years.
Why do I coach?
I carried a deeply-held belief that meaning and purpose would follow if I just worked hard enough. But they never did. As a result, work became a grind with no end point, and I eventually found myself burnt out chasing a version of success that was never going to fulfill me. Through coaching, I was able to see my beliefs more clearly, challenge them, and cultivate something more intentional. That experience showed me what's possible when someone is willing to look honestly at what's driving them and what's holding them back. I coach because I've been on the other side of that work, and I know what it unlocks. It's not easy, but for people who refuse to settle, it's worth every bit of effort.
