COOKIN' UP A STORY: Work Harder - Jake Latvala

After landing in Arkansas and mostly settling down, Jake Latvala continued his journey with Walmart, putting in almost 20 years. In his downtime, though, his passion was woodworking. That passion led him to buy a sawmill, which radically changed the trajectory of his career. There was one constant that had been with him since his early days driving a forklift in the Walmart distribution center in Redding, California, and that propelled his new venture to success. Jake was and is never afraid to work harder.
