Hi, I'm Jacob.
Full Stack Software Engineer.

About me

A full-stack web developer with a deep interest in AI and automation, helping businesses build powerful digital tools.

With a background in customer service and community projects, I transitioned into web development after realizing the need for better user-centered digital tools. Since then, I’ve built successful full-stack applications, improving efficiency for businesses and streamlining user experiences. I specialize in crafting solutions that empower users and organizations alike.

I've collaborated on numerous projects, including a barista training tool that integrates AI, and have been an active mentor in the 100DEVS community, helping new developers navigate their coding journeys.

My Experience

ASU

I went Arizona State University - Online For two years. School is not for everyone. I achieved the results I wanted by being a community taught developer

Starbucks

I spent three years as a supervising leader at Starbucks. My experience taught me time management, inventory management, and customer satisfaction models that I transfer into my career as a software developer.

Roswell Firelabs

As a volunteer at Roswell Firelabs, I’ve contributed to various community projects and supported local makers in utilizing technology to bring their ideas to life.

100DEVS

I had the privilege of joining the 100DEVS team in early 2022. I've helped new coders learn HTML, CSS, and Javascript by providing step by step advice throughout their coding journey.

Hudson Automotive Group

As a developer at Hudson Automotive Group, I’ve led full-cycle software development projects aimed at streamlining internal tools and automating workflows.
