hometown, or raising his teenage daughter Payton, Jacob is guided by a responsibility to act on others' behalf and in their interests.

We build a relationship, have an extensive planning process, and aren't captive to any company or investment product. Personally, my community and my family are the top priority. I grew up in North Portland and try to give back to the neighborhoods that are experiencing tremendous transformation. And I'm trying to raise my daughter to be a happy, successful, participating member of our society."
For more than six years, Jacob has been an ambassador board member for Friends of the Children, a nonprofit focused on mentor-ship to transform the lives of Portland's most vulnerable children.
When he's not cheering from the sidelines of Payton's softball or basketball games, Jacob enjoys outdoor activities, golf and just relaxing with the family.
