Jake Smith

Publications Director

Jake has been with the company for more than 15 years, first as an editor and now as the publications director. Because of his scientific background, Jake takes a calculated, strategic approach to marketing and is always willing to test new ideas to measure their effectiveness. With juggling editing responsibilities for the company’s dog magazines, marketing duties, managing the publications department, baseball coaching, raising Labrador retriever puppies for Leader Dogs for the Blind with his family, and his own fiction writing, it’s not surprising that Jake can also, well, juggle. Literally.
