About Jake:

Who is Jake Tullis...?

I have pondered this a great deal; it is still a question I am finding answers to as life persists.

I don’t have a complete answer, but I can share what I do know to be true about myself.

I am someone who has 0 quit in me, I have overcome more than I care to share at times. I am someone who is skilled at analysis and critical thinking, this is the gift I was given.

I am someone who works hard to use this gift to the benefit of those around me, my community. I am someone who bears responsibility so those I love do not have to. I am a steward to those who have entrusted their future with me.

I have found that I am a work in progress, like the rest of us. Both in my personal and professional life. This self-discovery process has fundamentally changed the trajectory of my life, and for that I am grateful.

I am here to help people better understand the entrepreneurial journey, and provide insights that can help shape their trajectory, just as I do for myself.

I never imagined I would be where I am today, and I just want the world to know they too are special, and can have whatever they desire in this life.
