The Port Washington, NY, native also served as a play-by-play voice for BTN Student U, calling select women's basketball, baseball, softball, field hockey, volleyball, and women's soccer games for the Big Ten Network's BTN2Go and BTN+ platforms over the last two years. Additionally, Jake was a main play-by-play broadcaster for WMUC Sports—the University of Maryland's student-radio station—calling football, men's basketball and women's basketball.

​

A veteran of over 200 broadcasts across eight different sports, Jake's dedication to broadcasting has led him to four NCAA Basketball Tournaments (two men's, two women's), three Big Ten Baseball Tournaments, one NCAA Baseball Tournament, and professional venues such as Madison Square Garden, Barclay's Center, and Target Field.
