Jake joined Peoples Company in March 2023. He grew up in St. Charles, Missouri, and comes from a farming background. Spending his summers working on his grandparent’s farm in southeastern Nebraska is where he found an appreciation and passion for agriculture. Jake started as an intern for Boyd Harris Companies, Inc. working as an Appraisal Technician in September 2020. He found his passion for real estate and decided to come on full time as an Appraiser Trainee after graduation in late 2021. Jake also pursued his real estate license during that time and was a licensed agent with National Land Realty for a year and a half. During that time, he gained valuable experience in real estate transactions. Co-listing and running a multi-parcel auction as well as listing several properties has given Jake knowledge in different aspects of real estate. These experiences have given him the skills to handle complex appraisals and real estate transactions. In his free time, Jake enjoys hunting, golfing and barbequing. Jake is a Certified General Appraisal Trainee and a Licensed Real Estate Agent whose service area covers the entire State of Missouri.

Jake attended the University of Missouri and graduated in 2021 with a Bachelor’s of Science in Business Administration with an emphasis in Finance and Real Estate.
