Jake has been playing since he was 8 years old. He was obsessed

would go into his bedroom and remove the mandolin after he was
asleep because they were afraid that, after falling asleep with
the mandolin still in his hands, he would hurt himself. Jake is
pursuing a bachelor’s degree in Mandolin Studies at the
Berklee School of Music in Boston. Jake is the 2007 winner of
the Telluride Festival mandolin contest
