Jacob in real life
What keeps you busy outside of work?
I love spending time with my daughter and my wife. We enjoy spending time at the park, running around at home, and watching football. I try to follow sports as much as I can (mostly NBA, MLB, and NFL) but I’m also a big fan of Pokemon, Star Wars, Marvel, and DC.
Why do you like working at Mercer Advisors?
I love working at Mercer Advisors because of the culture. It’s client-focused and puts our fiduciary duty at the forefront but it’s also very collaborative and help-focused. I have high regards for my colleagues and know that they’re always willing to help when I need it.
Any words you try to live by?
Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind… Love your neighbor as yourself.
Forbes Top Next-Gen Wealth Advisors, Best-In-State 2025: The rankings, developed by SHOOK Research, is based on an algorithm of qualitative criteria—mostly gained through telephone, virtual, and in-person due diligence interviews—and quantitative data. Those advisors that are considered have a minimum of four years’ experience, and the algorithm weighs factors like revenue trends, assets under management, compliance records, industry experience and those that encompass the highest standards of best practices. Portfolio performance is not a criterion due to varying client objectives and lack of audited data. Neither Forbes nor SHOOK receive a fee in exchange for rankings.
Please Note: Limitations. Neither rankings and/or recognitions by unaffiliated rating services, publications, media, or other organizations, nor the achievement of any professional designation, certification, degree, or license, membership in any professional organization, or any amount of prior experience or success, should be construed by a client or prospective client as a guarantee that they will experience a certain level of results if Mercer Advisors or its investment professionals are engaged, or continues to be engaged, to provide investment advisory services. A fee was not paid by either Mercer Advisors or its investment professionals to receive the award or ranking. The award or ranking is based upon specific criteria and methodology. No ranking or recognition should be construed as an endorsement by any past or current client of Mercer Advisors or its investment professionals.
