About Jake

Cirrus Owner, Entrepreneur, Creator


Jake Ruiz is a Cirrus owner, entrepreneur, and aviation content creator who brings a rare blend of technical precision, real-world experience, and design-driven thinking to Mason Amelia.


As the creator behind the Elivate brand (youtube.com/@elivatechannel), Jake has built a respected voice in the owner-flown community, known for thoughtful analysis, clean presentation, and a genuine passion for general aviation. Alongside his wife, Lyneé, he documents aviation as a lifestyle, flying their Cirrus SR22T across mountains, deserts, and high-density-altitude environments, often with their dogs onboard—and, yep, on O2.


Outside of aviation, Jake is the Owner and President of QRS, a remodeling and construction firm where he developed a deep understanding of craftsmanship, project execution, and client experience. His background includes a four-year carpentry apprenticeship, NARI certifications, and hands-on roles spanning project management, design, and estimation. That foundation shows up clearly in his aviation work: detail-oriented, intentional, and performance-driven.


At Mason Amelia, Jake serves as a Cirrus Specialist, focusing on acquisitions and sales within the owner-flown market. He combines real ownership experience with a sharp eye for presentation and market positioning, helping clients navigate transactions with clarity and confidence.


His approach reflects the Mason Amelia standard: thoughtful, polished, and built around delivering a high-end experience from first impression to closing.
