“As a CEO of a nonprofit, it is incredibly important to me to be able to present the mission of our organization accurately, concisely, and in a way that really hits home with our target market. Jake has been monumental in helping us tell our story in a way that resonates deeply and gets people to take action. His ongoing support and coaching is invaluable and illuminating every single time we meet. He asks fantastic questions, and has provided tremendous value from the first moment we began working together. Jake is our secret weapon and I could not recommend him enough.”

Hi, I'm Jake! I’m an expert in how to connect deeply with people and help them find their voice and share their story.
In the last decade my journey has taken me from improv stages to Nike’s global headquarters to the halls of Cambridge University.
I’ve learned that being a memorable and impactful public speaker is not about sounding a certain way or using specific images. It’s about making a deep human connection, being authentic with your audience and clear in what you have to share.
I’ve won awards and received standing ovations, but more importantly I’ve helped many people turn their diamond-in-the-rough ideas into compelling stories that leave an impression and inspire action.
I’d love to do the same for you.
“Five minutes after presenting what Jake and I worked on together, I got an offer for a partnership event. I feel freer, more empowered in telling my story, and able to be messy and authentic. Jake is one of the most empathetic and intuitive people I know. He is a fantastic listener. Hire him!”
- Amelie Rousseau, Founder and Executive Chef, Amelie’s Table
My methods are based in cognitive psychology, improvisational theater, and a deep understanding of what makes people tick. Coaching with me is playful and creative, while always answering to your specific needs and goals. I can teach you how to speak with your audience in mind, tapping into what deeply motivates people.
“I highly recommend to anyone to work with Jake on improving their presentation skills. Jake is very helpful, completely non-judgmental, astute about public speaking, and just really kind. He made this process fun and was able to give me suggestions without overwhelming me. He was able to assist me with both gaining concrete public speaking skills AND helping me gain confidence in speaking to a variety of audiences. My career path requires me to speak to different types of audiences and give different types of presentations, and I feel a significant impact on all of them because of my work with Jake.”
