Throughout my life, helping others has been an integral part of who I am. I chose a career in financial services because I believe I can make a difference in the lives of families in my community.

At Edward Jones, we offer investments, services and tools our clients need to work toward their financial future. In addition, the firm has thousands of professionals and advanced technology supporting our branch offices to help clients reach their long-term financial goals.

I attended the University of Arkansas where I graduated with a degree in finance. Before coming to Edward Jones, I worked at DHI Mortgage in the underwriting department. My wife, Jordan, and I welcomed our first child, Jett, in January 2024. We live in the Kirkwood area and are always looking for events and activities to participate in. We attend church at Oak Bridge City and are proud of how involved they are in the community.

My hobbies include hiking (often with our golden retriever, Duke), sports and enjoying time with family and friends. If it is a nice day, you can more than likely find me somewhere outside.

I would love to sit down with you and your family and get to know you. Give me a call at 314-966-3856 or send an email to jacob.laaker@edwardjones.com to schedule and introductory call. I look forward to talking with you!
