Army

Jake was active duty in the Army for 6 years, stationed in Colorado and is now back where he grew up – right here in the Twin Cities. Jake worked as a Bradley Mechanic, deployed twice (Kuwait and Germany) and honorably discharged earlier this year. Jake and his fiancé Julie met online during his first deployment and now they’re getting married in Spring 2019! You could say the Army brought them together!
