Jake Samuelsons Corner of the Internet
I currently work at Octane as a Senior Product Manager, managing our consumer servicing experience, payment rails, and payment portal, serving over 250,000 customers monthly and facilitating more than $1 billion in transactions annually.
My curiosity often leads me to explore interests across the internet and around the globe, but my core focus remains on building communities around my passions, including:
Health & Wellness - Biohacking, breathwork, and plant-based nutrition
Fitness & Adventure - Running, hiking, scuba diving, and mountaineering
Business & Technology - Product development and market gaps
I'm always looking to meet new people and build more community around the things that I love. If you want to get in contact, email jake@jakesamuelson.me
A little bit about me
