Andre Jacobovitz
It was a pleasure working with Blake. Blake was an intern in my team (Moody's Global Product Management), and I was very impressed with his performance. He was super adaptable, open to learning new subject matters, patient when working through complex problems, and very pleasant to work with. I look forward to seeing Blake continue to grow and thrive in his career!

In my work with Blake, I have found him to be both a team player and a leader. Blake followed through on all of responsibilities as the Commissioner of Clubs and Orgs at St. Monica by organizing and executing meetings for all club presidents, planning a club fair, and ensuring the involvement of clubs in all school affairs. I was also aware of his entrepreneurial spirit that has been fundamental in the expansion of his clothing company since its inception during his junior year at St. Monica. Having come to know Blake as a leader and entrepreneur, it is actually his character I am most impressed by. Not only is he an immensely talented performer, he is incredibly pleasant in his dealings with individuals of all backgrounds. Other students look to him as an example and administrators view him as the
