Meet Jake

Jake Teshka is a lifelong resident of the Saint Joseph County area, who graduated from St. Joseph High School in South Bend before obtaining a Bachelor's degree from Saint Joseph's College in Rensselaer, Indiana. He then went on to earn his Master of Public Affairs degree from Inidana University - South Bend. 

Jake has spent his career working in both private and public sector roles to make a positive impact on his community and currently works as a Business Development Officer.
"Because of my passion for impacting the lives of underserved youth, I am a member of Kiwanis and volunteer as a reading coach with the United Way. I am active at The Vineyard Church and strive every day to be the best husband to my wife and father to our two young children that I can be. They are ultimately the reason I decided to run for State Representative; to ensure that Indiana is a place where their biggest dreams can come true."  - Jake
