Jake’s first word was Volvo, thanks to his parents’ preference for safety. He could identify pretty much every car on the road by the age of two and has annoyed family and friends by dragging them along to endless cars events since. He’s also been sketching cars in great detail since he could hold a pen.
Having studied industrial design before his big break with Chasing Cars, Jake has a keen eye for aesthetics and innovation - his favourite pet topic is seat folding mechanisms, but also dabbles in cupholders and electric-folding mirrors. But above all else, Jake has a passion and respect for everything automotive - every car has its pros and cons.
When he’s not living and breathing cars, he’s a loving partner and son, as well as brother to Max the Maltese Shih Tzu.
