Jake comes from an extensive background of start-up and e-commerce experience. While earning a bachelor's degree at Lehigh University, he started his first company Want-something.com. Upon realizing his passion for marketing and start-ups, he parlayed that experience into becoming the first employee and Head of Marketing at goPuff, a fast-growing e-commerce delivery service. In the 4+ years as goPuff's Head of Marketing, Jake grew the marketing team to 30 people and the company as a whole scaled to over 500 employees, 50 US markets, and $1bn in valuation.

In efforts to leverage his start-up and growth experience, Jake left goPuff in late 2017 to start gettacar, an e-commerce car retailer. There, he led the growth of the brand and company to 200 employees and 3 rounds of funding with overall valuations in the 9 figures, becoming one of the leading disruptors in the industry.

In wanting to continue to help grow companies from the ground up, Jake left gettacar to start a growth advisory for start-ups to help them scale efficiently. At that point, he met Pierson and agreed to come on to the Lunar Solar Team to build out their Growth program and lead the Paid Ads Division.

Overall through his experiences, Jake has worked across 20 different marketing channels and platforms, overseeing the deployment of over $$50m in marketing spend and $500m in venture capital raises.
