Despite having grown up in cow country in the mid-western United States, Jacob always had a fascination with science and technology. He would dismantle and reassemble any piece of technology he could get his hands on from a very young age. It was no surprise when he pursued training in network design and administration while attending university in Indiana. He was recruited out of college to Silicon Valley for an internet startup, Corrigo, Inc. Corrigo developed and used technology to simplify common problems in real estate management. This experience was an precursor of what was to come for Jacob as he has continued his career in technology to solve problems, create efficiency, and help grow businesses of all sizes.

Jacob has consulted in technology and business development in many industries, including healthcare, pharmaceuticals, communications technology (Comcast, Verizon, AT&T), and construction.

These roles have provided Jacob with a holistic view of business operations and the needs for operational success.
