Bio
Ethan Gasee
Jake and I collaborated during the Morrissette Founders Program, Morrissette Entrepreneurial Accelerator, and most recently, on a new venture creation group report. He has proved himself to be hard-working, intelligent, and a creative problem solver. I’ve watched Jake take initiative during our time working together and he has demonstrated that he’s passionate and resilient. As a team player, Jake is both a leader and a great person to work alongside. He takes feedback well and is always open to new suggestions. No matter what position he is in on the team, he demonstrates an admirable work ethic and accountability. His positive attitude makes him an enjoyable person to work with and helps his team thrive through ups and downs. Jake’s personality and professionalism puts him at the top of my list for any project. I know that he would be a valuable leader or team member in any organization.
