About Me
my name is jakub. my nickname in my native country, polska, is "kuba." my close friends have found variations of both... hence the name kubajake. as stated, i'm originally from the old eastern block of europe but i've grown up in the united states for the majority of my life. that might still change... we'll see. i'm somewhat of a futbol (soccer) fanatic. it's in the blood, no lies. i have a dodgy knee with a history of injuries, so i don't really play the game anymore. i still have a bag of tricks though. beyond that, you'll probably find me on the tennis court or cycling the streets somewhere. i went to film school and i love the art of filmmaking, but i'm also a realist so i changed my path in life slightly and currently work as an independent corporate video producer. it's still fun, allows me to practice my craft, and is much more financially sound. ladies, if there's a wedding in your future, let me know. i film those too... ha ha! i've recently finished my MBA. figured that a little business education wouldn't hurt to supplement my film degree... ha ha... i tend to say what's on my mind, so things can get interesting at times. if i could be anyone else... it would have to be a miami vice detective or maybe jason bourne... my family and my friends are important to me because in all honesty, without them, what do any of us really have? material things are fun to collect but, come on, eventually you'll look at your life and say, "hey, where's the cream filling?" i'm 50-50 about trying all new things. stability is good, but change can be refreshing. it's like standing on the edge of a diving board for too long. if you wait, you'll ask too many questions, find too many uncertainties, and shy away... like the saying goes, "you can't win the lottery if you don't buy the ticket." i'm not going to buy every ticket but there are a lot of things to try... be smart. be cautious. know your limits. beyond that... go for it!
