Another sports team he follows is the NFL's Baltimore Ravens - he fell in love with them because of the legacy of the Ravens: hard-nosed smash-mouth football, especially the ferocious defensive players they've had over the years. His favourite Ravens player ever is the electrifying two-time MVP Lamar Jackson.

In 2023 Jake, attained an Extended Diploma in multimedia journalism as part of the University of the Arts London.
