JAKE
BILLINGSLEY's BIO as we first saw it on the CBS
Survivor Website: |
Born in Tyler, Texas, and raised in Texarkana,
Texas, Jake Billingsley received a Bachelor of
Science degree in Animal Husbandry from Texas A & M
University in College Station, Texas. He began his
career as Assistant County Agricultural Agent back
in Tyler. While there, he accepted a job as
 Agricultural
Consultant for a Texas-based utilities company and
worked his way up to Assistant Vice President. He
eventually left the utilities business to pursue
real estate. He worked for various firms in
capacities ranging from Associate to Senior Vice
President before deciding to open his own company
specializing in commercial real estate.
Jake is currently a land broker, and has been active in
commercial real estate in the Dallas area for over
30 years. In 1995, he moved to Colorado and became
the President and General Manager of an outdoor
adventure company that provided hunting, fishing and
horseback riding trips through remote regions of the
San Juan Mountains (a business he took over after
his son-in-law was tragically killed in a plane
crash). He enjoys videography/photography,
backpacking, camping, hunting and writing. His
perfect day would be on a boat in the Virgin Islands
with his wife, Jeni.
Jake and his wife currently reside in McKinney, Texas.
He has a 37-year-old daughter, Jamie Carlson, and a
35 year-old son Jay, as well as three stepsons,
Donnie (40), Mark (39) and Michael (37), and nine
grandchildren (six boys and three girls).
