Meet Our Founder and CEO

Jacob D. Cochrane - President/Chief Executive Officer

 

Born in North Carolina, Jake spent most of his life going back and forth between there and South Florida. He attended Embry Riddle Aeronautical University where he graduated with a master's in aeronautical science/engineering and also was a member of the ERAU Eagles baseball team. After college, Jake played professional baseball for the St. Louis Cardinals and Chicago White Sox organizations until he tore his rotator cuff ending his baseball career.

While in Miami, Florida trying to figure out his next, passionate move in life, Jake found his calling in sales and business management. Unlike a lot of salespeople in this day and age, Jake believes in an ethical, moral and professional approach that is extremely beneficial and advantageous for everyone. 

After working for some wonderful, Fortune 500 companies, he was able to take a plethora of different skills, values and abilities to achieve his goal, allowing him to form Ocean Capital Group, LLC. Formed in October of 2020, Ocean Capital has been working with and helping some of the most prestigious, successful companies in the world. Jake takes great pride in reaching for the stars even when things seem tough. His admiration, determination and enthusiasm for growing the client's companies has made it possible for him to become one of the best names in the industry. Even as the CEO, Jake is as hands on as the day he started working under/learning the trade. He makes sure all client's have the exact same, one-on-one, personable experience as the others.

"You're not going to get where you want to be by overly pushing customers to the point where you have lie and say anything just to make a sell or your quota. Honesty, commitment, communication and consistency are critical keys in business, along with getting to know your customer(s) as best as you can in order to form that relationship that can be built upon trust, loyalty and dedication. Through these simple principles, I have clients that will only use our company and can go to bed at night knowing that all of their business endeavors are taking care of without having to worry about there being a mistake." - Jacob D. Cochrane - CEO


When not working, Jake spends most of his time with his wife Lauren and their dog, Benji and cat, Walter. 

Residents of the beautiful, oldest city in America, Saint Augustine, Florida, Jake and Lauren love catching some sun or even a wave or two down on Anastasia Island. 

As an avid outdoorsman, Jake loves fishing and sailing the beautiful inlets and secret spots along the intracoastal shore lines.
